Death Rules
When a character reaches Zero hit points they begin dying, you gain dying 1. Each round at
the start of your turn you roll a flat check of a DC equal to 10 + your dying rating. If you fail
this check, your dying condition increases by one.
If the attack that reduced you to dying was a critical hit, you start at dying 2.
A Character that’s bleeding and dying, increases the DC of the flat check by +1 per bleeding
damage they take in a turn.
Legend Points
At the start of every session, if you have zero Legend points, you gain 1.
A character can hold up to a number of Legend points equal to its character level.
Every time a player levels up he regains Legend points up to his current maximum.
You gain Legend Points through play, by achieving particularly incredible and noteworthy
feats.
Reroll
Spend one legend point to reroll any d20. The reroll must be accepted.
Empowered technique
Spend one legend point to increase the range, damage, area and duration of a Jutsu by 50%
or its difficulty save by +4.
Cooperation Technique
The hallmark of a great Naruto Fight scene was when two Shinobi spontaneously combined
their attacks into one, creating a new and exciting technique right there on the spot. To use a
Cooperative Technique, a character must spend a Legend Point during the turn of one of his
compatriots after having explained the cooperation idea to the Storyteller and gotten the
greenlight on whether it would feasibly work. A character that decides to engage in a
Cooperation Technique, will lose an action on the following turn corresponding to the action
he spent for the Cooperation Technique. To use a Cooperation Technique, the two (or more)
Shinobi that work together must first know each other relatively well, and use either
complementary Techniques or the same Technique. At its basis, the Cooperation Technique
will simply work like being hit by two different Techniques at once. However, the Storyteller
may rule additional effects based on the synergy of the two (or more) Techniques used
together. For instance if one were to use Deep Forest Emergence to grapple a target, before
the other Cooperator lit it on fire, the trees might burn and crumble away but the additional
fuel will have caused additional damage to the target. Some Cooperation Techniques might
have longer lasting effects, such as an Uchiha letting his Susanoo cover the exterior of a
Wood Golem. Cooperation Techniques are narrative tools and should be treated as a way
for characters and storytellers to make for awesome and impressive displays of camaraderie
and power.
While most Cooperation Techniques will happen spontaneously, it should be feasible for
players to create Techniques that mimic their effects without the need for a Legend point,
once it has been used successfully on the battlefield first.
Legendary Survival
If your character is ever killed, you can spend all your remaining legend points to secure his
survival and relative safety in some fashion. This is a narrative option, that has the GM see
to your character's survival in whatever way he deems most appropriate.
Attack of Opportunity
An attack of opportunity is an attack that can be made when an enemy opens himself
The following actions trigger an attack of opportunity.
Casting Jutsu that require Hand Seals, in melee. A defensive technique roll at a DC of 15 +
Technique level, this roll is made with the skill used to activate the technique.
Moving around in an enemy's threatened space. However this can be circumvented with a
guarded step or successfully roll acrobatics DC 10 + to hit your opponent.
Skills
Here I will list all the skills, with a few exceptions, that you’ll find in the Shinobi Legends Pen

times, and it stacks up to +5 in any one ability score.

gifts.

Conditions
Bleed
A creature that is taking bleed damage takes the listed amount of damage at the beginning
of its turn. Bleeding can be stopped by a DC 15 Heal check or through the application of any
Technique that cures hit point damage (even if the bleed is ability damage). Some bleed
effects cause ability damage or even ability drain. Bleed effects do not stack with each other
unless they deal different kinds of damage. When two or more bleed effects deal the same
kind of damage, take the worse effect. In this case, ability drain is worse than ability damage.
Blinded
The creature cannot see. It takes a –2 penalty to Armor Class, loses its Dexterity bonus to
AC (if any), and takes a –4 penalty on most Strength- and Dexterity-based skill checks and
on opposed Perception skill checks. All checks and activities that rely on vision (such as
reading and Perception checks based on sight) automatically fail. All opponents are
considered to have total concealment (50% miss chance) against the blinded character.
Blind creatures must make a DC 10 Acrobatics skill check to move faster than half speed.
Creatures that fail this check fall prone. Characters who remain blinded for a long time grow
accustomed to these drawbacks and can overcome some of them.
Broken
Items that have taken damage in excess of half their total hit points gain the broken
condition, meaning they are less effective at their designated task. The broken condition has
the following effects, depending upon the item.
If the item is a weapon, any attacks made with the item suffer a –2 penalty on attack and
damage rolls. Such weapons only score a critical hit on a natural 20 and only deal ×2
damage on a confirmed critical hit.
If the item is a suit of armor or a shield, the bonus it grants to AC is halved, rounding down.
Broken armor doubles its armor check penalty on skills.
If the item is a tool needed for a skill, any skill check made with the item takes a –2 penalty.
If the item is a wand or staff, it uses up twice as many charges when used.
If the item does not fit into any of these categories, the broken condition has no effect on its
use. Items with the broken condition, regardless of type, are worth 75% of their normal
value. If the item is magical, it can only be repaired with a mending or make whole
Technique use by a character with a useer level equal to or higher than the item’s. Items
lose the broken condition if the Technique restores the object to half its original hit points or
higher. Non-magical items can be repaired in a similar fashion, or through the Craft skill used
to create it. Generally speaking, this requires a DC 20 Craft check and 1 hour of work per
point of damage to be repaired. Most craftsmen charge one-tenth the item’s total cost to
repair such damage (more if the item is badly damaged or ruined).
Confused
A confused creature is mentally befuddled and cannot act normally. A confused creature
cannot tell the difference between ally and foe, treating all creatures as enemies. Allies
wishing to use a beneficial Technique that requires a touch on a confused creature must
succeed on a melee touch attack. If a confused creature is attacked, it attacks the creature
that last attacked it until that creature is dead or out of sight.
Roll on the following table at the beginning of each confused subject’s turn each round to
see what the subject does in that round.
d% Behavior
01-25 Act normally.
26-50 Do nothing but babble incoherently.
51-75 Deal 1d8 points of damage + Str modifier to self with item in hand.
76-100 Attack nearest creature (for this purpose, a familiar counts as part of the subject's
self).
A confused creature who can’t carry out the indicated action does nothing but babble
incoherently. Attackers are not at any special advantage when attacking a confused
creature. Any confused creature who is attacked automatically attacks its attackers on its
next turn, as long as it is still confused when its turn comes. Note that a confused creature
will not make attacks of opportunity against anything that it is not already devoted to
attacking (either because of its most recent action or because it has just been attacked).
Cowering
The character is frozen in fear and can take no actions. A cowering character takes a –2
penalty to Armor Class and loses his Dexterity bonus (if any).
Dazed
The creature is unable to act normally. A dazed creature can take no actions, but has no
penalty to AC. A dazed condition typically lasts 1 round.
Dazzled
The creature is unable to see well because of overstimulation of the eyes. A dazzled
creature takes a –1 penalty on attack rolls and sight-based Perception checks.
Dead
The character’s hit points are reduced to a negative amount equal to his Constitution score,
his Constitution drops to 0, or he is killed outright by a Technique or effect. The character’s
soul leaves his body. Dead characters cannot benefit from normal or magical healing, but
they can be restored to life via magic. A dead body decays normally unless magically
preserved, but magic that restores a dead character to life also restores the body either to
full health or to its condition at the time of death (depending on the Technique or device).
Either way, resurrected characters need not worry about rigor mortis, decomposition, and
other conditions that affect dead bodies.
Deafened
A deafened character cannot hear. He takes a –4 penalty on initiative checks, automatically
fails Perception checks based on sound, takes a –4 penalty on opposed Perception checks,
and has a 20% chance of Technique failure when using Techniques with verbal
components. Characters who remain deafened for a long time grow accustomed to these
drawbacks and can overcome some of them.
Disabled
A character with 0 hit points, or one who has negative hit points but has become stable and
conscious, is disabled. A disabled character may take a single move action or standard
action each round (but not both, nor can he take full-round actions, but he can still take swift,
immediate, and free actions). He moves at half speed. Taking move actions doesn’t risk
further injury, but performing any standard action (or any other action the GM deems
strenuous, including some free actions such as using a quickened Technique) deals 1 point
of damage after the completion of the act. Unless the action increased the disabled
character’s hit points, he is now in negative hit points and dying.
A disabled character with negative hit points recovers hit points naturally if he is being
helped. Otherwise, each day he can attempt a DC 10 Constitution check after resting for 8
hours, to begin recovering hit points naturally. The character takes a penalty on this roll
equal to his negative hit point total. Failing this check causes the character to lose 1 hit point,
but this does not cause the character to become unconscious. Once a character makes this
check, he continues to heal naturally and is no longer in danger of losing hit points naturally.
Energy Drained
The character gains one or more negative levels, which might become permanent. If the
subject has at least as many negative levels as Hit Dice, he dies. See Energy Drain and
Negative levels more information.
Entangled
The character is ensnared. Being entangled impedes movement, but does not entirely
prevent it unless the bonds are anchored to an immobile object or tethered by an opposing
force. An entangled creature moves at half speed, cannot run or charge, and takes a –2
penalty on all attack rolls and a –4 penalty to Dexterity. An entangled character who
attempts to use a Technique must make a concentration check (DC 15 + Technique level) or
lose the Technique.
Exhausted
An exhausted character moves at half speed, cannot run or charge, and takes a –6 penalty
to Strength and Dexterity. After 1 hour of complete rest, an exhausted character becomes
fatigued. A fatigued character becomes exhausted by doing something else that would
normally cause fatigue.
Fascinated
A fascinated creature is entranced by a supernatural or Technique effect. The creature
stands or sits quietly, taking no actions other than to pay attention to the fascinating effect,
for as long as the effect lasts. It takes a –4 penalty on skill checks made as reactions, such
as Perception checks. Any potential threat, such as a hostile creature approaching, allows
the fascinated creature a new saving throw against the fascinating effect. Any obvious
threat, such as someone drawing a weapon, useing a Technique, or aiming a ranged
weapon at the fascinated creature, automatically breaks the effect. A fascinated creature’s
ally may shake it free of the Technique as a standard action.
Fatigued
A fatigued character can neither run nor charge and takes a –2 penalty to Strength and
Dexterity. Doing anything that would normally cause fatigue causes the fatigued character to
become exhausted. After 8 hours of complete rest, fatigued characters are no longer
fatigued.
Flat-Footed
A character who has not yet acted during a combat is flat-footed, unable to react normally to
the situation. A flat-footed character loses his Dexterity bonus to AC (if any) and cannot
make attacks of opportunity.
Frightened
A frightened creature flees from the source of its fear as best it can. If unable to flee, it may
fight. A frightened creature takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks,
and ability checks. A frightened creature can use special abilities, including Techniques, to
flee; indeed, the creature must use such means if they are the only way to escape.
Frightened is like shaken, except that the creature must flee if possible. Panicked is a more
extreme state of fear.
Grappled
A grappled creature is restrained by a creature, trap, or effect. Grappled creatures cannot
move and take a –4 penalty to Dexterity. A grappled creature takes a –2 penalty on all attack
rolls and combat maneuver checks, except those made to grapple or escape a grapple. In
addition, grappled creatures can take no action that requires two hands to perform. A
grappled character who attempts to use a Technique or use a Technique-like ability must
make a concentration check (DC 10 + grappler’s CMB + Technique level, see
Concentration), or lose the Technique. Grappled creatures cannot make attacks of
opportunity.
A grappled creature cannot use Stealth to hide from the creature grappling it, even if a
special ability, such as hide in plain sight, would normally allow it to do so. If a grappled
creature becomes invisible, through a Technique or other ability, it gains a +2 circumstance
bonus on its CMD to avoid being grappled, but receives no other benefit.
Helpless
A helpless character is paralyzed, held, bound, sleeping, unconscious, or otherwise
completely at an opponent’s mercy. A helpless target is treated as having a Dexterity of 0 (–
5 modifier). Melee attacks against a helpless target get a +4 bonus (equivalent to attacking a
prone target). Ranged attacks get no special bonus against helpless targets. Rogues can
sneak attack helpless targets.
As a full-round action, an enemy can use a melee weapon to deliver a coup de grace to a
helpless foe. An enemy can also use a bow or crossbow, provided he is adjacent to the
target. The attacker automatically hits and scores a critical hit. (A rogue also gets his sneak
attack damage bonus against a helpless foe when delivering a coup de grace.) If the
defender survives, he must make a Fortitude save (DC 10 + damage dealt) or die. Delivering
a coup de grace provokes attacks of opportunity.
Creatures that are immune to critical hits do not take critical damage, nor do they need to
make Fortitude saves to avoid being killed by a coup de grace.
Incorporeal
Creatures with the incorporeal condition do not have a physical body. Incorporeal creatures
are immune to all nonmagical attack forms. Incorporeal creatures take half damage (50%)
from magic weapons, Techniques, Technique-like effects, and supernatural effects.
Incorporeal creatures take full damage from other incorporeal creatures and effects, as well
as all force effects.
Invisible
Invisible creatures are visually undetectable. An invisible creature gains a +2 bonus on
attack rolls against a sighted opponent, and ignores its opponent’s Dexterity bonus to AC (if
any). See Invisibility, under Special Abilities.
Nauseated
Creatures with the nauseated condition experience stomach distress. Nauseated creatures
are unable to attack, use Techniques, concentrate on Techniques, or do anything else
requiring attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move actions per
turn.
Panicked
A panicked creature must drop anything it holds and f lee at top speed from the source of its
fear, as well as any other dangers it encounters, along a random path. It can’t take any other
actions. In addition, the creature takes a –2 penalty on all saving throws, skill checks, and
ability checks. If cornered, a panicked creature cowers and does not attack, typically using
the total defense action in combat. A panicked creature can use special abilities, including
Techniques, to f lee; indeed, the creature must use such means if they are the only way to
escape.
Paralyzed
A paralyzed character is frozen in place and unable to move or act. A paralyzed character
has effective Dexterity and Strength scores of 0 and is helpless, but can take purely mental
actions. A winged creature f lying in the air at the time that it becomes paralyzed cannot f lap
its wings and falls. A paralyzed swimmer can’t swim and may drown. A creature can move
through a space occupied by a paralyzed creature—ally or not. Each square occupied by a
paralyzed creature, however, counts as 2 squares to move through.
Petrified
A petrified character has been turned to stone and is considered unconscious. If a petrified
character cracks or breaks, but the broken pieces are joined with the body as he returns to
flesh, he is unharmed. If the character’s petrified body is incomplete when it returns to flesh,
the body is likewise incomplete and there is some amount of permanent hit point loss and/or
debilitation.
Pinned
A pinned creature is tightly bound and can take few actions. A pinned creature cannot move
and is denied its Dexterity bonus. A pinned character also takes an additional –4 penalty to
his Armor Class. A pinned creature is limited in the actions that it can take. A pinned
creature can always attempt to free itself, usually through a combat maneuver check or
Escape Artist check. A pinned creature can take verbal and mental actions, but cannot use
any Techniques that require a somatic or material component. A pinned character who
attempts to use a Technique or use a Technique-like ability must make a concentration
check (DC 10 + grappler’s CMB + Technique level) or lose the Technique. Pinned is a more
severe version of grappled, and their effects do not stack.
Prone
The character is lying on the ground. A prone attacker has a –4 penalty on melee attack rolls
and cannot use a ranged weapon (except for a crossbow). A prone defender gains a +4
bonus to Armor Class against ranged attacks, but takes a –4 penalty to AC against melee
attacks.
Shaken
A shaken character takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability
checks. Shaken is a less severe state of fear than frightened or panicked.
Sickened
The character takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, weapon damage rolls, saving throws,
skill checks, and ability checks.
Stable
A character who was dying but who has stopped losing hit points each round and still has
negative hit points is stable. The character is no longer dying, but is still unconscious. If the
character has become stable because of aid from another character (such as a Heal check
or magical healing), then the character no longer loses hit points. The character can make a
DC 10 Constitution check each hour to become conscious and disabled (even though his hit
points are still negative). The character takes a penalty on this roll equal to his negative hit
point total.
If a character has become stable on his own and hasn’t had help, he is still at risk of losing
hit points. Each hour he can make a Constitution check to become stable (as a character
that has received aid), but each failed check causes him to lose 1 hit point.
Staggered
A staggered creature may take a single move action or standard action each round (but not
both, nor can he take full-round actions). A staggered creature can still take free, swift, and
immediate actions. A creature with nonlethal damage exactly equal to its current hit points
gains the staggered condition.
Stunned
A stunned creature drops everything held, can’t take actions, takes a –2 penalty to AC, and
loses its Dexterity bonus to AC (if any).
Unconscious
Unconscious creatures are knocked out and helpless. Unconsciousness can result from
having negative hit points (but not more than the creature’s Constitution score), or from
nonlethal damage in excess of current hit points.

Direction
3rd +2 +1 +3 +3 Talent +1
Proficiency: The Dilettante is Proficient in all Nin-weapons, as well as all Light armour.
Charm Direction
The Dilettante has an innate talent for being charming and captivating.
Charm: The Dilettante gets a competence bonus on all Charisma-based skill checks made
to influence members of his chosen gender. (Some characters are charming to members of
the opposite gender, others to members of the same gender.) The bonus is equal to the
character’s Dilettante level. A Dilettante can only charm characters with attitudes of
indifferent or better. The charm bonus can’t be used against characters who are unfriendly or
hostile. This ability can be taken more than once (for another gender).
Favor: The Dilettante has the ability to acquire minor aid from anyone he meets. By making
a favor check, a Dilettante can gain important information without going through the time
and trouble of doing research. Favors can also be used to acquire the loan of equipment or
documents, or to receive other minor assistance in the course of an adventure. A Dilettante
spends 1 hour in conversation to activate this talent. To make a favor check, roll a d20 and
add the character’s favor bonus, equal to the character’s level + Charisma Modifier + Charm
bonus (If applicable). The GM sets the DC based on the scope of the favor being requested.
The DC ranges from 10 for a simple favor to as high as 30 for formidable and highly
dangerous, expensive, or illegal favors. A Dilettante can’t take 10 or 20 on this check, nor
can the Dilettante retry the check for the same (or virtually the same) favor. Favors should
help advance the plot of an adventure. A favor that would enable a character to avoid an
adventure altogether should always be unavailable to the character, regardless of the result
of a favor check. The GM should carefully monitor a Dilettantes use of favors to ensure that
this ability isn’t abused. The success or failure of a mission shouldn’t hinge on the use of a
favor, and getting a favor shouldn’t replace good roleplaying or the use of other skills. The
GM may disallow any favor.
Prerequisite: Charm.
Leadership Direction
The Dilettante has a talent for leadership and inspiration.
Coordinate: The Dilettante has a knack for getting people to work together.
When the hero can spend a full round directing his allies and makes a Charisma check (DC
10), the Dilettante provides any of his allies within 30 feet a +1 bonus on their attack rolls
and skill checks. The bonus lasts for a number of rounds equal to the hero’s Charisma
modifier. The hero can coordinate a number of allies equal to his Dilettante level.
Inspiration: The Dilettante can inspire his allies, bolstering them and improving their
chances of success. An ally must listen to and observe the Dilettante for a full round for the
inspiration to take hold, and the Dilettante must make a Charisma check (DC 10). The effect
lasts for a number of rounds equal to the Dilettante’s Charisma modifier. An inspired ally
gains a +2 morale bonus on saving throws, attack rolls, and damage rolls. A Dilettante can’t
inspire himself. The hero can inspire a number of allies equal to is Dilettante level.

happens around him allows him to make shrewd and insightful calculations about people

effect to indicate his position would instantly give him away.
Withdrawn
Fading Chakra (Su): The Withdrawn Nobody sits in the back of the class, they don’t speak
up when questions are asked, they never make a point out of letting their presence be
noticed. This sort of behaviour has rubbed off on their Chakra, a Withdrawn Nobody’s
Chakra is always considered to be of a strength one level lower than it currently represents
for the purpose of being sensed. I.e If it’s Strong, it’d be sensed as moderate. Trifling can’t
be reduced to nothing. Additionally, the Nobody’s Chakra score is considered to be 5 lower
for the purpose of Suppress Chakra.

equal to her Charisma modifier + 1 (minimum 1). The DC is based on the size of the
settlement, and it takes a week for the rumour to propagate through the settlement. If the
check succeeds, the rumour is practically accepted as fact within the community; succeeding
by 5 or more over the DC decreases the time it takes the rumour to propagate by 1d4 days.
A failed check means the rumour failed to gain traction, while failing by 5 or more causes the
opposite of the rumour or some other competing theory involving the rumour’s subject to
take hold.

target suffers one of the following effects based on the part of the body targeted. If a
creature doesn’t have one of the listed body locations, that body part cannot be

bonus to AC (whether the target actually has a Dexterity bonus or not), or when the
Manipulator flanks his target.This extra damage is 1d6 at 1st level, and increases to 2d6 at
4th level and every 3 levels thereafter. Should the Manipulator score a critical hit with a
sneak attack, this extra damage is not multiplied. Ranged attacks can count as sneak
attacks only if the target is within 30 feet.
With a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (like a sap, whip, or unarmed strike), a
Manipulator can make a sneak attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage.
He cannot use a weapon that deals Lethal damage, to deal nonlethal damage in a sneak
attack. Not even with the usual -4 penalty.
The Manipulator must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must
be able to reach such a spot. A Manipulator cannot sneak attack while striking a creature
with concealment.

Critical Strike (any 2 Taijutsu Expertise): Whenever the Martial artist would threaten a
critical hit with an unarmed attack, he automatically confirms it as if he’d rolled a 20.

devastating flying kick to an opponent. At the end of any charge, the Martial artist adds his
class level as a bonus to the damage he deals with an unarmed strike performed with his
feet.

when performing taijutsu techniques and allows the Martial artist to learn techniques of a
rank higher than his Skill rank allows.

artist's unarmed strikes can threaten a critical hit against creatures not normally subject to
critical hits.

Strength or Dexterity bonus to damage with his unarmed attacks

save his chakra when performing a Strike Taijutsu technique. Each Jutsu Technique with the

for his unarmed attacks.
Weapon Mastery (any 2 Taijutsu Expertise): The Martial artist is able to apply his Unarmed

damage bonus on his unarmed attacks, and damage done by Strike taijutsu techniques.

overcoming damage reduction.

Sword Weaving
While holding his chakra state weapon, the Shinobi Blade Savant is able to perform
techniques using half seals or hand seals with a simple wave of his sword. Doing so in a
threatened area can still provoke an attack of opportunity.
The Shinobi Blade Savant must choose which type of techniques to apply this ability to:
Genjutsu or Ninjutsu.
Bonus Feats
At 2nd and 6th level, the Shinobi Blade Savant gets a bonus feat. These feats must be
related to Jutsus or swordplay.
Chakra Sword
The Shinobi Blade Savant can now channel one of his Chakra natures through his Chakra
state weapon, this adds 1d6 points of elemental damage corresponding to the nature
transformation you invested your blade with.
Blade Specialization
At 5th level you gain a +1 bonus to hit and a +2 bonus to damage with all bladed weapons.
Sealing Sword
The blades of a Shinobi Blade Savant can now be used to seal Chakra inside of them, this
means that whenever the Shinobi Blade Savant scores a critical hit against someone the
blade absorbs 1d4 points of chakra per critical modifier. A weapon with a x2 critical modifier
absorbs 2d4, x3 3d4 and so on. The chakra is stored within the Blade. A Chakra state
weapon can store up to 10 points of Chakra per Shinobi Blade Savant level. Should the
Shinobi Blade Savant ever choose to create a new Chakra state weapon or lose his old one,
all the Chakra within is lost and evaporates into nothingness. A Shinobi Sword Savant can
draw Chakra from his Sealing sword by spending one minute in concentration, this transfers
5 points of Chakra from the sword per class level, to the Shinobi Sword Savant.
Once a target is sealed within, the weapon will not lose its Chakra state, even when another
blade is chosen or left by the wielder.
Furthermore the user can channel the Chakra nature of anyone kept within, allowing his
weapon to deal damage with one of the Sealed targets Elemental nature.
Lastly a blade in which a target is sealed loses all its stored Chakra, instead the Shinobi
Blade Savant will draw chakra directly from the target within. A sealed Target regains
Chakra as normal.
Shinobi Guardian
A ninja adept at protecting others and jumping in harm's way, the Shinobi Guardian
is the ideal bodyguard, the one shinobi most likely to stay behind to delay the
incoming waves of the enemy and survive. He is most wanted in rear guard defense
on the battlefield.
Requirements:
To qualify to become a Shinobi Guardian, a character must fulfil all the following
criteria.
HP: 11
Class Skills
The Shinobi Guardian's class skills are as follows.
Acrobatics (Dex), Intimidate (Cha), Lore (Any), Perception (Wis), Stealth (Dex),
Ninjutsu, Taijutsu (Str).
Skill Points at Each Level: 2 + Int modifier.
7th +5 +4 +2 +2 Mettle +4
8th +6 +4 +3 +3 Bonus feat +4
The Shinobi Guardian must declare his intention to place himself in harm’s way
before the attack roll is made. He selects his ally either prior to combat or
immediately after the shinobi makes his initiative check. The ally cannot be changed
for the duration of the combat.
Bonus Feats
At 8th level, the Shinobi Guardian gets a bonus feat.
This damage reduction stacks with the damage reduction of the same type.
Sneak Attack
This ability functions as the Shinobi agent's sneak attack ability. If he can catch an
opponent when he is unable to defend himself effectively from his attack, he can
strike a vital spot for extra damage. Creatures immune to critical hits and sneak
attacks, or who have concealment, do not suffer extra damage.
This extra damage is 1d6 at 6th level. If the Shinobi Guardian gains a bonus to
sneak attack from another source, the bonuses stack.
Mettle (Ex)
When the Shinobi Guardian makes a successful Fortitude or Will save against any
power, technique or ability that would have a lesser effect on a successful save
(such as a technique that allows a saving throw of Fortitude half or Will partial), the
Shinobi Guardian instead completely negates the effect. This ability only functions
when the Shinobi Guardian is conscious.
Undying Shinobi
When the Shinobi Guardian reaches 10th level, he gains the ability to perform
normally, without being staggered, when his hit points have been reduced below 0
and he’s acting because of Diehard. He may choose to succumb to
unconsciousness still. Furthermore he automatically stabilizes when he goes
unconscious.
Shinobi Swordsman
This caste of ninja follows the path of the sword, while embracing the shadow. The
flash of the sword, the slight change in the air, is the only clue one has before the
shinobi swordsman's blade falls. If he chooses to face a foe in direct combat, no
matter the odds, men will fall before him like grain before a scythe.
There are few things in this world as dangerous as these men and their swords. It is
difficult to spot a Shinobi Swordsman, even though they carry swords that can range
in size from a ninja-to to an immense fullblade.

criteria.

Bonus Feats
At 3rd, 7th, and 9th level, the Shinobi Swordsman gets a bonus feat.
Sneak Attack
This ability functions as the Shinobi Agent sneak attack ability. If he can catch an opponent
when he is unable to defend himself effectively from his attack, he can strike a vital spot for
extra damage. Creatures immune to critical hits and sneak attacks, or who have
concealment, do not suffer extra damage.
This extra damage is 1d6 at 4th level, and it increases by 1d6 every 4 levels thereafter. If the
shinobi swordsman gains a bonus to sneak attack from another source, the bonuses stack.
Deadly Blade
A Shinobi Swordsman’s proficiency with his blade is so advanced, that he lands critical hits
more easily. The swordsman’s critical threat range is doubled. This ability does not stack
with any other ability increasing the critical threat range.
Weapon Master
Devoted to the perfection of a single weapon, the weapon master’s meditations upon his
favored weapon border on the obsessive, but none can deny his consummate skill. The
weapon master must select a single type of weapon (such as longsword or shortbow). All of
his abilities apply to that weapon type.
Requirements:
To qualify to become a weapon master, a character must fulfill all the following
criteria.
HP: 9

Succession Technique
At 2nd, 3rd and 4th level, the devastator gains a special ability from the list below,
called succession techniques. Unless otherwise specified, a succession technique
cannot be selected twice.
Abilities such as the elementalist's elemental fury apply to all damage die. A
technique so modified cannot be copied or assimilated. This ability can be selected
twice; each time applying to a different nature manipulation.
The devastator is able to spend a meta-chakra charge to deliver the full effects of the
technique with a melee touch attack. The range becomes "melee touch" and it
targets a single creature exclusively. A technique so modified cannot be copied or
assimilated.
Bonus Feat: Instead of a succession technique, the devastator may elect to pick a
bonus feat . This ability can be selected twice.
Chakra Medium Alteration (Su): The devastator is able to manipulate the way his
Genjutsu techniques affect a foe. He may deliver a scent-based illusion as a gaze
attack or sound-based effect, or a gaze attack as a sound- or scent-based effect, or
finally a soundbased effect as a gaze attack or smell-based effect.
The number of targets affected is still dependent on the technique used and level of
the devastator, and normal limitations of gaze attacks, scent- and sound-based
effects apply (such as blindness or deafness). Selecting this ability permanently
costs the devastator 1 meta-chakra charge.
Chakra Reach Extension (Su): The devastator is able to deliver melee touch attacks
with Chakra Control, Genjutsu or Ninjutsu techniques on a target up to 30 feet away.
He must make a ranged touch attack. This ability can be selected twice, the range
increases to 60 feet; the second time permanently costs the devastator 1 meta-
chakra charge.
Chakra Pulse Mastery (Su) (requires 1 other succession technique): The devastator
adds his Devastator level as a circumstance bonus to release checks against
Genjutsu techniques.
Chakra Shape Manipulation (Su): The devastator is able to shape area effects to
omit certain spaces that would normally be affected. The area effect must be either a
burst, cone, cylinder, emanation or spread effect, and the minimum dimension for
these spaces is one 5-ft. cube. Furthermore, the minimum dimension for a
shapeable technique is 5 feet, rather than 10 feet.
Devastation (Su) (requires 1 other succession technique): The devastator adds his
Intense Power (Su) (requires 2 other succession techniques): The devastator deals 3
dice extra damage when performing Chakra Control, Genjutsu and Ninjutsu
techniques, but only for the purpose of dealing damage.
The Devastator is able to do so for 3 rounds. At the end of the encounter in which
this ability was used, the Devastator is exhausted for an hour. This ability cannot be
used while suffering from chakra depletion or while exhausted.

Perfect Jinchuriki
While most bearers of the Chakra Beasts known as the Tailed Beasts live a pained and
isolating existence, a rare few of them manage to build up a rapport with their captive beast
and develop a relationship based on friendship or respect. These are known as Perfect
Jinchuriki as they seem able to call upon the beast's power whenever necessary.
Requirements
To qualify to become a Perfect Jinchuriki, a character must fulfill all the following
requirements
Skills: Deception 8 or Diplomacy 8, Chakra Control 8.
Feats: Monstrous Reserve, Iron Will,

Transformation
Proficiencies
The Perfect Jinchuriki gains no additional proficiencies
Initial Contact
You’ve made the first step toward proper communion by showing your Ghastly
Residence respect and honesty. You no longer suffer the weakness of Ghastly
Frenzy, meaning that when you reach below 20% of your hit points you no longer
enter a Blind rage. However, when below 20% of your maximum hitpoint total you
may choose to enter the blind rage of Ghastly Frenzy it at will.
Tailed Rapport
You’ve established a respectful rapport with your Tailed-beast, thus eliminating the
Ruinous Depletion weakness. Additionally, the Perfect Jinchuriki can now enter the
Tailed-Beast Chakra Cloak by spending a move action, and 1 point of Monstrous
Reserve per round the cloak remains active. At level 4 the Perfect Jinchuriki can
spend 2 points per round of Monstrous Reserve to instead enter the Bloody Chakra
Cloak.
Partial manifestation
You have learned to call part of your Tailed Beast into the world, as an extension of your
own body. The Perfect Jinchuriki can now transform partially without entering into any of the
transformation states, this allows them to make use of the tailed-beasts natural attacks
without transforming, gaining 1/4th of the attribute bonuses gained from the Complete
Transformation with these attacks or when using these appendages to manipulate objects or
people. To manifest any of these appendages, the Perfect Jinchuriki must spend a Move
action and 1 point of Monstrous Reserve for every 2 rounds they keep it active.
Impressive Reserve
Your tailed beast passenger has agreed to grant you a little more of its power, thus
increasing your Monstrous Reserve. Your Monstrous Reserve is now calculated
using the following formula: 3 + Total Character Level + 1 per level in Perfect
Jinchuriki and the pool refreshes completely after a full rest.
Complete Transformation
You’re now a true Perfect Jinchuriki, giving you access to not only the Chakra of your
passenger but it’s form too. You gain access to your Complete Tailed-Beast transformation,
this costs 4 points of Monstrous Reserve per turn and takes a Standard action to enter into.
Additionally, the Perfect Jinchuriki learns the Jinchuriki Tailed Beast Ball but may only use it
during Complete Transformation.
Effect: The tailed beast ball is often considered the most devastating technique of the tailed
beasts, it is made up of a chakra ratio of 8:2 Positive Black Chakra and Negative White
Chakra. The User must gather and balance this chakra in their mouths, shape it into a
sphere and then fire it at a target. A Tailed Beast Balls, in spite of being pure Chakra, is
incredibly dense and weighs an astounding amount. This often leads to the ground cratering
underneath the user as he creates it.
A Tailed Beast ball explodes upon impact, in a 40 ft. radius burst that deals 14d8 points of
neutral damage which is not subject to reduction from resistances. A Tailed beast can
increase the damage, range and area of a Tailed Beast Ball by adding more chakra. For an
additional 2 points of Chakra the damage increases by 1d8, for 5 points of chakra the Area
burst increases by 5ft and for 5 additional points of chakra the range increases by 20%. A
Tailed Beast can spend at most 20 additional chakra to increase the numerical value of the
Tailed Beast Ball.

Sage Mode
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Sage’s Affinity
Lvl: 8 Rank: A-Class LDC: 28
Time: 1 Move action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Special, see text
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 0
Effect: To activate the Sage mode the user immediately pays 2 points of nature chakra.
This Technique lasts for as long as the user has the necessary nature chakra to fuel it, the
user must pay 1 point of nature chakra per turn for as long as he wishes to sustain the sage
mode.
While the sage mode is active the user doubles the ability bonus he gains from the sage’s
affinity and his Improved sage’s affinity, gaining a +2 bonus to hit and Dodge bonus to AC,
as well as any technique the user uses while the sage mode is active is affected as per

passively Sense Chakra and their surroundings, with no action necessary to activate or
sustain the ability. The range of his Passive Sense Chakra is equal to 100 yards per
maximum of Nature Chakra pool. So, for a Sage with 10 Nature chakra, he could sense up
to 1000 yards around himself. Furthermore, while the sage mode is active, the user can fight
perfectly without the need for sight or sound, thanks to his ability to sense his surroundings,
letting him work without any penalty from being blinded or deafened.

point of nature chakra paid blocks 2 points of damage.

Death Attack
If the shade studies his victim for 3 rounds and then makes a sneak attack with a melee
weapon that successfully deals damage, the sneak attack has the additional effect of
possibly either paralyzing or killing the target (shade’s choice).
While studying the victim, the shade can’t undertake other actions as his attention must
stay focused on the target.The death attack fails if the target recognizes the shade as an
enemy. If the victim of such an attack fails a Fortitude save (DC 10 + the shade’s
class level + the shade’s Int modifier) against the kill effect, it dies.
If the saving throw fails against the paralysis effect, the victim is rendered helpless and
unable to act for 1 round per level of the shade. If the victim’s saving throw succeeds, the
attack is just a normal sneak attack. Once the shade has completed the 3 rounds of study,
he must make the death attack within the next 3 rounds.
If a death attack is attempted and fails (the victim makes its save, or the attack misses) or
if the shade does not launch the attack within 3 rounds of completing the study, 3 new
rounds of study are required before he can attempt another death attack.
If the shade's death attack fails because of a failed save or a missed attack roll, save DC
against that victim decreases by 2, and an additional 2 every failure, for one day.
Sneak Attack
This ability functions as the Shinobi Agents sneak attack ability. If he can catch an opponent
when he is unable to defend himself effectively from his attack, he can strike a vital spot
for extra damage. Creatures immune to critical hits and sneak attacks, or who have
concealment, do not suffer extra damage.
This extra damage is 1d6 at 1st level, and it increases by 1d6 every odd-numbered level
thereafter. If the shade gains a bonus to sneak attack from another source, the bonuses
stack.
Poison Expert
The shade never risks poisoning himself when applying poison to a weapon.
Swift Kill
Once per day, the Shade may choose a single target for his Death attack without the need of
studying her target for three rounds.
Sure Kill
The shade, if he misses on a death attack, may make an Intelligence based Concentration
check (DC 20). If the check is successful, he retains his attempt to a death attack until his
next successful sneak attack, so long as it happens within 3 rounds. This ability cannot be
used more than once against a given target during a single day.

Additionally, this ability can be used to perform a spacetime ninjutsu technique with the
summoning descriptor as a quick action, providing the technique's ordinary performance
time is no longer than one standard action. The ability otherwise functions as described
above, but the summoner can only use this ability once per round if he seeks to quicken it.
Strategist
The Strategist is the man behind the curtain. He makes deadly plans to aid his
allies and bring his enemies down with terrifying swiftness and efficiency. The master
strategist works best with allies as his ability to make plans can empower them a
great deal, but he can be a force to be reckoned with on his own, given time.
Requirements:
To qualify to become a Strategist, a character must fulfill all the following criteria.
Skills: Lore (tactics) 6 ranks.
Feats: Combat Expertise.
HP: 6
Class Skills
The Strategist's class skills are as follows.
When creating the plan the Strategist makes a Lore (Tactics) check. The result of the
check provides the Strategist and allies with a circumstance bonus. A Strategist can’t
take 10 or 20 when making this check.
This bonus can be applied to all skill checks and attack rolls made by the Strategist
and his allies, but the bonus only lasts for the first 3 rounds after making the plan.
After that time, reduce the bonus by 1 point (to a minimum of +0) for every additional
round the situation continues, as the vagaries of circumstance begin to unravel even
the best-laid plans. To gain any bonus from this ability, your allies must be able to
hear you explain a plan.
Bonus Chakra
The Strategist gains a certain amount of bonus chakra and bonus reserve from
taking levels in this class. The amount of bonus chakra or chakra reserve gained is
shown on the table below. It is not influenced by ability scores, and is in addition to
the standard amount gained every level from gaining an additional hit dice.
The amount of bonus chakra or reserve doesn't stack, simply choose the appropriate
value based on the character's class levels. Multiple instances of Bonus Chakra and
Reserve, such as from various classes, do stack with each other.

Swift Planning
At 3rd and 5th level, the Strategist gains the ability to formulate a plan during combat
as per Tactical Plan ability, but at a -4 penalty. Using this ability is a standard action
that may provoke an attack of opportunity.
Declaration of War
The Strategist knows that the best way to end the fight is to start the fight himself.
The Strategist must be able to study the participants prior to combat for at least one
round. If he does this, he gains a free readied action that allows him to take either a
move or Standard action if either side takes a hostile action. This action is taken
before Initiative is rolled, therefore giving the Strategist the element of surprise.
Tactical Assessment
The Strategist has a keen eye to judge an enemy's strength. By observing an
individual or obstacle for at least 1 round, the Strategist can make a Lore (Tactics)
check (DC 20) A successful check reveals its strength compared to the Strategist or
a nearby creature or obstacle: stronger (higher level or hit dice), on par (same level
or hit dice) or weaker (lower level or hit dice).
Immediate Planning
The strategist can now formulate a plan during the first round of combat in an
encounter, this incurs a -6 penalty. Using this talent requires preparation; a
Strategist can’t use this talent when surprised or otherwise unprepared for a
particular situation. This talent cannot be used in conjunction with swift planning.
Tactical Focus
At 6th level, the Strategist selects a number of skills from his class list equal to 3 +
his Intelligence modifier. He may take 10 to any of those skills even when stress or
distractions would prevent it.
Checkmate
When the Strategist forms a plan during an encounter, he can invoke the Checkmate
ability while the plan bonus is still at its maximum. The Plan bonus is doubled for one
round, and creatures gain one-half the initial Plan bonus to techniques, spells,
powers and saves DCs, rounded down. After the Checkmate fades, the plan bonus
is reduced to 0.
This ability is a swift action and can be used once per day. All allies who can hear
the Strategist and that benefit from his initial Plan gain the bonus of Checkmate.
Bonus Feat
At 7th level, the Strategist gets a bonus feat.

The specialty comes into play any time the analyst applies a meta-chakra feat to a technique
or spends a meta-chakra charge to activate an ability it may grant, and varies from one feat
to another. Specializations do not stack and cannot be taken twice. The analyst must have
taken the meta-chakra feat to specialize in it. Some specializations have requirements, and
they are specified parenthetically.

Traps (Ex)
The Trapsmith learns to create traps in a hurry, he learns the Snare trap plus one per
intelligence modifier as well as 2 traps per Trapsmith level after that. He can craft a number
of traps equal to 2 per level plus his intelligence modifier. Crafting and placing a trap takes
one full-round action. The DC to resist a trap is equal to 10 + ½ the Trapsmith’s total
character level + his intelligence modifier.
_________________________________________________________________________
Acid Trap
Effect: The target is splattered with acid, taking a number of points of acid damage equal to
1d6 + 1d6 perTrapsmith level to the triggering creature (Reflex negates).
Alarm Trap
Effect: When the trap is triggered, it also creates a momentary loud noise, anyone within 60
feet of the alarm can hear it clearly, Reducing the distance by 10 ft. for each interposing
closed door and by 20 feet for each substantial interposing wall. In quiet conditions, the
ringing can be heard faintly as far as 180 feet away. The alarm rings for 2 rounds.
Bleeding Trap
EffecT: This trap can only be added to a Wounding trap. The triggering creature takes 1d4
points of bleed damage. This bleed damage can be cured by any application of Healing
Ninjutsu or a Medicine check with a DC of 15 + the Trapsmith’s class level.
Bludgeoning Trap
Effect:The trap bludgeons the creature that triggers it. The trap makes an attack with a
bonus equal to the Trapsmith’s character level + his Intelligence bonus. The triggering
creature is denied its Dexterity bonus to AC if it was unaware of the trap. If the trap hits, it
deals 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage for every class level the Trapsmith possesses
(minimum 2d6). If it’s an extraordinary trap.
Burning Trap
Effect: A Trapsmith can only add this to a fire trap. If the triggering creature fails its Reflex
save, it catches on fire, taking 1d6 points of fire damage at the start of its turn for 1d4
rounds. The burning creature can attempt a new save as a full-round action. Dropping and
rolling on the ground grants a +4 bonus on this save.
Decoy Trap
Effect: The trap creates a shadowy humanoid figment that appears to move away from the
triggering creature or that follows a simple program of no more than 25 words defined by the
Trapsmith at the time when the trap is set. Unless programmed otherwise, the figment
appears 60 feet away from the triggering creature or as close to that distance as possible,
and then moves away toward the nearest exit, if any. The figment can move up to 60 feet
per round. A viewer can attempt a Will save or a Perception check to disbelieve the Genjutsu
if she attacks it or otherwise interacts with it. The Will save DC to disbelieve the illusion is the
same as the DC to avoid the trap; the DC of the Perception check to disbelieve the illusion is
equal to 5 + the DC to avoid the trap.
Distraction Trap
Effect: The target is affected with irritation that detracts from its alertness. It takes a –2
penalty on Perception checks, initiative checks, and Reflex saves for 10 minutes per
Trapsmith level.
Fire Trap
Effect: The trap explodes in flames, dealing a number of points of fire damage equal to 1d6
+ 1d6 the Trapsmith's class level to the triggering creature (Reflex negates).
Firework Trap
Effect: A Trapsmith can add this augmentation to a fire or smoke trap. The trap explodes in
a flash of colored lights. All creatures within 10 feet must succeed at a saving throw
(Fortitude) or be blinded for 1d4+1 rounds.
Freezing Trap
Effect: The trap creates a burst of ice that damages and encases the triggering creature.
The creature takes 1d3 points of cold damage + 1d3 per Trapsmith's class level and is
entangled and stuck to the ground, similar to the effect of a tanglefoot bag. A successful
Reflex save halves the damage and means the creature is not stuck to the floor by the ice.
The ice is 1 inch thick per 2 Hit Dice of the Trapsmith (minimum 1), has hardness 0 and 3 hit
points per inch of thickness, and melts in 2d4 rounds.
Limning Trap
Effect: This trap sprays glowing dust into the trapped square and all adjacent squares. A
creature covered in this dust glows like a candle (becoming visibly outlined if invisible) and
takes a -20 penalty on Stealth checks. The dust’s effects last for 1 round per Trapsmith level
or until the creature washes it off (a move action requiring water or some other cleanser).
Marking Trap
Effect: If the triggering creature fails its save against the trap, it is marked with a dye and/or
scent of the Trapsmith's choosing. A scent mark decreases the DC of tracking the marked
creature by scent by 4. The mark can be washed off with vigorous scrubbing, but fades on
its own over several days.
Oversized Barbs
Effect: The target is speared with barbs that penetrate and protrude from its body, making
squeezing, climbing, and swimming challenging. The trap implants 1d4+1 barbs, each
dealing 1 point of damage. A successful Reflex save halves the number of barbs. The target
takes a penalty on Climb checks and Swim checks, as well as suffers 10% technique failure
on techniques with a mobile component, equal to the number of barbs attached, and is
considered one size category larger for the purposes of determining what size of opening or
passageway it must squeeze through as long as at least 1 barb remains attached. Each barb
can be removed with a full minute of work and a Heal check that equals or exceeds the
trap’s DC. If this check fails, the barb is still removed but the target takes 1d4 points of
damage. The barbs shake loose harmlessly after 10 minutes per Trapsmith level.
Penetrating Trap
Effect: A Trapsmith can only add this to a wounding trap. The damage die of a penetrating
trap increases to 1d8. The trap counts as Chakra Infused for the purposes of overcoming
damage reduction.
Pit Trap
Effect: This simple pit is covered over with leaves or appropriate materials for the area. It’s 5
feet deep plus 5 feet for every Trapsmith level. A victim that succeeds at a Reflex save
doesn’t fall into the pit.
Poison Trap
Effect: The trap poisons the creature that triggers it. The poison deals 1d2 Con damage per
round for 6 rounds. A fortitude save negates the initial poisoning, a target is allowed one
save per round to be cured of the poison.
Rusting Trap
Effect: The trap throws up a cloud of rusting dust, dealing 1d4 points of damage to the
target’s metal armor and weapons. A Trapsmith may increase the damage by 1d4 point for
each additional daily use of his trap ability he spends when creating this trap. A successful
Reflex save negates this damage.
Selective Trigger
Effect: The Trapsmith adds a Chakra nature, genetic type (Such as Dojutsu Kekkei Genkai),
or minimum weight restriction to the trap’s trigger.
Sleet Trap
Effect: The detonating trap creates a 20-foot-radius burst of sleet with the effects of a sleet
storm. Driving sleet blocks all sight (even Darkvision) within it and causes the ground in that
area to be icy. A creature can walk within or through the area of sleet at half normal speed
with a DC 10 Acrobatics check. Failure means it can’t move in that round, while failure by 5
or more means it falls. The sleet extinguishes torches and small fires. The driving sleet lasts
for 1 round, but the icy ground persists for 1 round per Trapsmith level.
Smoke Trap
Effect: This trap bellows out thick, choking smoke that fills the trapped square and all
adjacent squares. Any breathing creature in these squares must succeed at a Fortitude
saving throw or take a -4 penalty to Strength and Dexterity every round it’s within the smoke
and for 1d4+1 rounds after leaving the smoke. All sight, even darkvision, is ineffective in or
through the smoke. The smoke lasts for 1 round per Trapsmith levels, and is dispersed by
wind as a fog cloud.
Snare Trap
Effect: The trap constricts around a limb or other part of the triggering creature's body
(Reflex avoids). The creature cannot move from the location of the trap, unless the
Trapsmith included a “leash” when setting the trap, in which case the creature is limited to
the length of the leash. The trapped creature can escape with an Escape Artist check (DC
equal to the trap's DC+5) as a full-round action. The trap or its leash has a number of hit
points equal to the Trapsmith's level time 8, or can be burst as a full-round action with a DC
25 Strength check. The trap can hold up to a Medium creature; each extra daily use of the
Trapsmith's trap ability spent when the trap is set increases the maximum size of creature
the trap can hold. At the Trapsmith's option, if there is a tall object or structure nearby, she
can have the trap lift the creature.
Swarm Trap
Effect: The trap releases a bat swarm, rat swarm, or spider swarm or other insect swarm
that attacks all creatures in the area. The swarm remains in the general area for no longer
than 1 round per Trapsmith level, after which it disperses. The trapsmith must have access
to an insect swarm, for instance through the Aburame techniques or through Summoning.
The Trapsmith could also simply supply the swarm, by capturing the creatures as he
prepares the trap. This, however, presents it own problems.
Tar Trap
Effect: The target is coated in a thin layer of sticky tar unless it succeeds at a Reflex save. It
is entangled, and becomes susceptible to catching fire from any source of flame. If lit on fire,
the tar burns intensely for 1 round per trapsmith level; it deals 2d6 points of fire damage and
is destroyed in the process. Unless burned away, the tar remains for 1 minute per Trapsmith
level.
Tripwire
Effect: A taut wire stretched between two vertical surfaces knocks the target prone unless it
succeeds at a Reflex save. A running or charging creature takes a –6 penalty on its save.
Wounding Trap
Effect: This trap makes a melee attack against the target using the Trapsmith’s base attack
bonus + his Intelligence modifier for the attack roll. It deals an amount of damage equal to
1d6 + 1d6 per Trapsmith level. The Trapsmith chooses whether this damage is bludgeoning,
piercing, or slashing.

Surgery Feat
Surgery Expert
<Fluf>
Prerequisite: Lore (life science) 6 ranks, Medicine 6 ranks
Benefit: You have extensive knowledge of the human body that allows you to perform
extensive surgery or an autopsy on a dead subject. Autopsy allows you to determine not
only the cause of death, but also reveals much of a body's secrets.
Forensics
Performing an autopsy requires 1 hour and can only be done on subjects of your own type.
Every 3 ranks beyond 6, you may learn to perform an autopsy on one additional type. The
first hour allows you to make one use of Surgery Expert feat, and every hour after that allows
for an additional use, up to a maximum of 1 hour per point of the dead subject's former
Constitution score; afterwards, the body becomes useless. The DC of the forensics' use
depends on the use you make of it, and is always a Lore (life science) check, unless
specified otherwise.
Cause of Death (DC 15): You are able to determine the nature of the killing blow delivered
on the subject. Viable examples include: mental trauma (possibly through genjutsu),
poisoning, disease, hemorrhaging (also reveals the nature of the damage), or chakra coil
damage.
Examination (DC 18): You are able to determine all types of poisons and diseases the
subject had been subjected to in the last 14 days before its passing, plus 1 day per point you
exceed the DC by.
Condition (DC 20): You are able to determine the subject's maximum hit points and chakra
pool, level, advanced bloodline and elemental affinities.
Enhancements (DC 25): You can determine whether or not the subject had taken shinobi
drugs, analyze and catalog their effects. Further analysis may reveal the components used
in the drug, at the GM's discretion.
Specialization (DC 28): You are able to determine one of the following: what the subject's
Strength, Dexterity or Constitution (choose one) scores were before its passing, minus all
enhancement bonuses, or the types of technique it utilized the most (Chakra Control,
Genjutsu, Ninjutsu or Taijutsu; if ninjutsu or taijutsu, specify the subtype, if any).
Necromancy (Medicine DC 30): Another use of forensics is the ability to put a body back
together no matter how mangled it was, assuming no body parts are missing. If any body
parts are missing, necromancy cannot be performed. The body, when pieced back together,
may be used to perform an autopsy upon for 1 hour, plus 1 hour every 5 points you beat the
DC by. This is generally the task of several medics aiding one another. Necromancy cannot
be retried.
Kekkei Genkai Genetics (DC 32): You can perform a quick analysis of the targets genes, to
recognize any Advanced Chakra natures or Bloodlines native to the body. This can be
performed on live subjects too. Body modification and Healing Body modifications and
Healing usually takes an hour of time in surgery, you can only perform surgery on targets
with an anatomy familiar to your own. See Forensics for more details.
Bodypart Retrieval (DC 15): The Character is able to retrieve and store a specific body part,
ensuring it won't decompose or spoil.
Surgical Healing (DC 20): You perform surgery to deal with the worst of the characters ails,
healing it for 5d6 points of damage and 1d6 points of ability damage, plus an additional 5d6
points of hit point damage and 1d6 points of ability damage once every two days over the
course of the following week as the target recovers.
Grafting (DC 25): The character is capable of grafting on another body part in place of an old

Diplomacy check made to improve the attitude of a person. The Aburame rolls 1d20 and
adds her character level and her intelligence modifier to determine the Vermin empathy
check result. The typical house vermin has a starting attitude of indifferent, while wild vermin
are usually unfriendly. Vermin are normally mindless, but this empathic communication
imparts on them a modicum of implanted intelligence, allowing Aburame to train vermin and
use them as mounts, spies, assassins and more. Vermin empathy treats swarms as if they
were one creature possessing a single mind—an Aburame can thus use this ability to
influence and direct the actions of swarms with relative ease.
To use vermin empathy, the Aburame and the vermin must be within 30 feet of one another

with influencing people, it might take more or less time.

once. Its effects do not stack. Each time a Character selects this Alteration, it applies to a
different energy type.
Skilled (Ex): A Character becomes especially adept at a specific skill, gaining a +4 racial
bonus on that skill. This Alteration can be selected more than once. Its effects do not stack.
Each time a Character selects this Alteration, it applies to a different skill.
Slam (Ex): a Character can deliver a devastating slam attack. This attack is a primary attack.
The slam deals 1d8 points of damage (2d6 if large, 2d8 if huge, 2d10 if gargantuan). The
Character must have the limbs(arms) Alteration to take this Alteration. Alternatively, the
Character can replace the claws from its tribe with this slam attack (This still costs 1
Alteration point). This Alteration can be selected more than once, but the Character must
possess an equal number of limbs.

This attack is a secondary attack. The tail slap deals 1d6 points of damage(1d8 if large, 2d6
if huge, 3d6 if gargantuan).

flight Alteration, with wings to select this Alteration.
2-Point Alterations
The following Alterations cost 2 points from the Characters Alteration pool.
Ability Increase (Ex): The character grows larger muscles, gains faster reflexes or achieves
greater intelligence. The character increases one of his ability scores by +2. This alteration
can be taken more than once.
Constrict (Ex): A Character gains powerful muscles that allow it to crush those it grapples.
Whenever the Character successfully grapples a foe using the grab Alteration, it deals
additional damage equal to the amount of damage dealt by the attack used by the grab
Alteration. This Alteration is only available to Characters with tentacles, tongues or a
serpentine form.
Flight (Ex ): A Character grows large wings, like those of a bat, bird or insect, gaining the
ability to fly. The Character gains a fly speed equal to its base speed. The Characters
maneuverability depends on its size. Medium or smaller Characters have good
maneuverability. Large Characters have average maneuverability, while huge or gargantuan
characters have poor maneuverability. The flight speed of the Character can be increased
by 20-foot for each additional Alteration point spent. The ogre tribe does not gain wings, and
fly supernaturally, however this flight costs 4 points to them instead, and the cost to increase
speed is 2 instead of 1. However Ogres maneuverability is perfect for Small or medium,
good for large and average for huge and Gargantuan.
Gore (Ex): A Character grows a number of horns on its head, giving it a gore attack. This
attack is a primary attack. The gore deals 1d6 points of damage (1d8 if large, 2d6 if huge,
3d6 if gargantuan).

than the Character or smaller. Characters with this Alteration receive a +4 bonus on CMB
checks made to grapple.
Limbs (Ex): A Character grows an additional pair of limbs. These limbs can take one of two
forms. They can be made into legs, complete with feet. Each pair of legs increases the
Charactered base speed by 10 feet. Alternatively, they can be made into arms, complete
with hands. The Charactered does not gain any additional natural attacks for an additional
pair of arms, but it can take other Alterations that add additional attacks (such as claws or a
slam). Arms that have hands can be used to wield weapons, if the Character is proficient.
This Alteration can be selected more than once.
Trip (Ex): A Character becomes adept at knocking foes to the ground with its bite, granting it
a trip attack. Whenever the Character makes a successful bite attack of the selected type, it
can attempt a free combat maneuver check. If successful, the target is knocked prone. If the

size equal to or smaller than the Charactered. The Charactered must possess the bite
Alteration to select this Alteration.
3-point Alterations
Frightful Presence (Ex): A Charactered becomes unsettling to its foes, gaining the frightful
presence ability. The Charactered can activate this ability as part of an offensive action, such
as a charge or attack. Opponents within 30 feet of the Charactered must make a Will save or
become shaken for 3d6 rounds. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the Characters HD
+ the Characters Charisma modifier. If the Characters has at least 4 more Hit Dice than an
opponent, that opponent becomes frightened instead. Foes with more HD than the
Characters are immune to this effect. The Character must be at least 5th level before
selecting this Alteration.
4-point Alterations
Fast healing (Su): A Characters body gains the ability to heal wounds very quickly, giving it
fast healing 1. The Character heals 1 point of damage each round, just like natural healing.
Fast healing does not restore hit points lost due to starvation, thirst, or suffocation, nor does
it allow the Character to regrow lost body parts (or to reattach severed parts). Fast healing
functions as long as the Character is alive. This healing can be increased by 1 per round for
every 2 additional Alteration points spent (maximum 5).
Large (Ex): A Charactered grows in size, becoming Large. The Charactered gains a +8
bonus to Strength, a +4 bonus to Constitution, and a +2 bonus to its natural armor. It takes a
–2 penalty to its Dexterity. This size change also gives the creature a –1 size penalty to its
AC and on attack rolls, a +1 bonus to its CMB and CMD, a –2 penalty on Fly skill checks,
and a –4 penalty on Stealth skill checks. If the Charactered has the biped base form, it also
gains 10-foot reach. Any reach Alteration the Charactered possesses are added to this total.
The Charactered must be Medium to take this Alteration.
Bloodline
Dōjutsu
Byakugan
The user can activate the Byakugan eye as a move action, the Byakugan eye costs 3 chakra
to activate and 3 chakra for every 4th turn they’re active. As long as the Byakugan eye is
active the user is granted a +1 bonus to Attack, Defense and reflex saves. It also grants a +4
bonus to sight-based perception. As long as the byakugan eye is active the user can see
through any kind of smoke or mist, thus ignoring any concealment granted by such.
Furthermore the user can penetrate 1 inch of material per bonus granted by this ability as
well as the ability to see chakra as well as detecting lingering Chakra and detecting the
chakra pools of others, effectively allowing him to gauge their potential.
As the user tries to gauge the potential and chakra level of a person he must roll a
perception check equal to target character level+10, he gains a bonus to this roll equal to the
indicated value of his sight-based perception bonus. A Character that knows he’s being
gauged can intentionally react and attempt to seem weaker by rolling a deception check
against the users perception check, the user receives a bonus to this roll equal to the
indicated value. Should the user succeed he immediately gains the knowledge of the amount
of chakra in a characters pool and their reserve.
If used to detect lingering chakra the user must roll a perception check, success indicates he
can gleam the residual chakra in an area and thus confirm that there has been recent chakra
use. The DC of this roll is equal to 30 – the number of Chakra used within the past hour,
each hour after that the DC increases by 5.
Telescopic Eyesight (Su)
The user gains the ability to focus his eyesight, extending it to extreme ranges allowing him
to see far off into the distance. This ability takes five rounds of concentration to activate and
can only be activated while the Byakugan eye is active, once the activation is complete the
user can view in any direction, up to 500 meters per bonus granted by Byakugan eye’s
bonus to sight based perception. While telescopic eyesight is active the ability to penetrate
matter with sight is doubled. This ability lasts for as long as the user concentrates.
Intermediate Byakugan
At 7th level, all your numeric bonuses increase by +1.
Master Byakugan: At 11th level, all your numeric bonuses increase by +1.
Hanshagan
This strange Dōjutsu allows its wielder to dilate his eyes and take in an increasing amount of
light, thanks to the extra reflective capabilities of the eyes he’s able to filter through the
added information and as such his perception increases significantly.
When this Dōjutsu is active, the user’s pupils grow to fill almost the entire iris, with the iris
itself growing to fill the entire rest of the eye. Activating Hanshagan costs 2 points of Chakra
and has an upkeep cost of 2 points of Chakra every 4th round.
Microscopic Sight
The wielders of Hanshagan are capable of seeing things at the microscopic level and,
thanks to their powerful eyes, react to it much quicker. While active, Hanshagan grants the
user a +10 bonus on sight-based Perception and gives him the ability to see things at the
microscopic level, such as seeing Chakra threads, differentiating small microbial life and
even seeing individual water droplets in the air.
Reflective Eyes
Thanks to the eyes’ reflective nature, affecting their wielder with Dōjutsu-based Genjutsu is
incredibly hard. There is always a 50% chance that the wielder avoids the technique entirely,
this chance increases to 85% if the wielder also chooses to avert his gaze.
Evasive Gaze
Thanks to the impressive eyesight and ability to read additional information, visually, the
wielder gains a +4 dodge bonus to armor class while the Hanshagan is activated, as long as
the user is able to see his attackers.
Light Vulnerability
Thanks to the increased intake of light, the user is extremely vulnerable to light-based
attacks such as Flashbangs. The user takes a -4 penalty against such attacks.
Water Droplet Reflection Sight
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Hanshagan active
Lvl: 3 Rank: B-Class LDC: 21
Time: Special
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Concentration
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 2
Effect: Utilizing his ability to view the microscopic world, the user projects his sight onward
through water droplets in the air, allowing him to effectively move his field of vision. The user
can, through the use of this technique, project his sight to anywhere within a 5 kilometers
radius, provided the moisture in the air allows it, by projecting his sight from water droplet to
water droplet. This projected sight allows the user to view a given area as though he was
there himself. However, the user loses awareness around himself as his sight is so focused.
He’s considered flat-footed while this technique is in effect.
Kesshogan
The wielders of this powerful Kekkei Genkai, have long considered themselves on par with
the Hyuga and Uchiha and for good reason, as their eyes possess an equal, if not greater,
level of clarity than those of the big three.
Kesshogan Eye (Sq): This Dōjutsu causes the wielder's eyes to turn ruby red and glowing
with the same colour. While active, the user gains a great deal of visual and aural clarity, as
well as the ability to block another’s visual prowess, hindering their ability to perceive chakra.
The user can activate the Kesshogan as a move action, this costs 3 points of Chaka, a cost
which the user is required to pay every 4 rounds to keep the eyes active. As long as the
Kesshogan eye is active, it grants the user a +1 bonus to Attack, Dodge bonus to armor
class, reflex saves and will saves against Genjutsu. It also grants a +4 bonus on all
perception checks based on sight and hearing. As long as the eyes are active, the user can
pierce through any kind of smoke, mist or similar effect, thus ignoring any concealment
granted by such. Furthermore, the user can penetrate 2 inches of solid material per +1
bonus this ability grants to perception, as well as the ability to see chakra, detect lingering
chakra and allows the user to accurately determine the chakra pools of others.
As the user tries to gauge the potential and chakra level of a person he must roll a
perception check equal to target character level+10, he gains a bonus to this roll equal to the
indicated value of his sight-based perception bonus. A Character that knows he’s being
gauged can intentionally react and attempt to seem weaker by rolling a deception check
against the users perception check, the user receives a bonus to this roll equal to the
indicated value. Should the user succeed he immediately gains the knowledge of the amount
of chakra in a characters pool and their reserve as well as what elemental affinity they
possess.
If used to detect lingering chakra the user must roll a perception check, success indicates he
can gleam the residual chakra in an area and thus confirm that there has been recent chakra
use. The DC of this roll is equal to 30 – the number of Chakra used within the past hour,
each hour after that the DC increases by 5.
Clairvoyance/Clairaudience (Su): The user gains ability to focus his eyesight, extending it
to extreme ranges allowing him to see far off into the distance. This ability takes five rounds
of concentration to activate and can only be activated while the Kesshogan eye is active,
once the activation is complete the user can view in any direction, up to 1000 meters per
bonus granted to perception by the Kesshogan eye. While Clairvoyance is active the ability
to penetrate matter with sight is doubled. Similar to above, the user can also throw his
hearing a similar distance and he isn’t blocked by material one would ordinarily be able to
hear through. This ability lasts for as long as the user concentrates.
Blinding Eyesight (Su): While the Kesshogan is active, the user can decide to block the
ocular clarity of other individuals. This ability blocks the ability to see, sense or otherwise
perceive chakra of anyone within a 30 ft. radius of the user. This also removes the bonuses
granted by any other Dōjutsu against Genjutsu.
Sharper Lense (Ex): At 7th level, all the numeric bonuses granted by the Kesshogan
increase by +1, the perception bonus increases by +2 instead.
Clear as Crystal (Ex): At 12th level, all the numeric bonuses granted by the Kesshogan
increase by +1, the perception bonus increases by +2 instead.
Effect: With the Kesshogan active, the user is able to cast a Genjutsu involving the creation
of silhouettes or illusory beings as a means of distraction. The entities are so realistic, that
they even have their own chakra pathway system, and thus fool both the Byakugan and
Sharingan, removing their bonuses to detect Genjutsu. These entities appear to converge on
the targets within the area, attacking them, causing anyone within the area to be flanked. If
an entity is attacked, it simply vanishes in a puff of smoke, to reform a second later. The user
and their allies are considered having cover while within the technique. The area of the
technique is considered difficult terrain, for any target within, as they attempt to avoid their
imaginary enemies.
If this technique targets a living creature, the target is healed for 25 hit points every round,
however the user also takes 10 hit points worth of damage every round. The user can
increase the amount healed in a given round by +15 hit points, by taking a point of
Constitution damage.
If the technique targets a dead creature, the user can bring it back from the dead. However,
doing so imposes 1 negative level upon the user for each HD of the target the user wants to
bring back. This increases by +1 additional negative level, for each day the target has been
dead. If a user cannot pay the cost, they can choose to sacrifice their own life to bring a
target back from the dead. A target brought back from the dead, returns with 0 hit points,
after which the user can continue the technique as if targeting a living. A user must roll a
fortitude save, 24 hours after attaining a negative level to remove it. If they fail, they can
attempt again a week later.
Ketsuryūgan
Cost: To activate the Ketsuryūgan, the user must pay 1 point of Chakra every 3 rounds to
keep it active. Activating it constitutes a swift action.
Eyes of the Dragon: The special Blood red Dragon eyes of the Chinoike clan allows its user
to boost the power of his Doujutsu, even beyond the capability of the renowned Sharingan.
While active DC to resist any Doujutsu Genjutsu employed by the user is increased by +2,
and the user gains a +4 inherent bonus on saves to resist any Doujutsu employed against
them. Lastly, the user gains +2 bonus on Perception and Sense Motive checks.
Hypnotic Eyes: While active, the user can choose to spend a move action to activate a
Hypnotic Eye gaze attack. This gaze attack extends up to 10ft away from the user and
requires a Will save DC 10+half HD+Charisma modifier to resist. On a failed save the target
becomes fascinated with the user’s eyes, stopping their movement and simply stares at the
target's eyes. This makes it very easy for the Ketsuryūgan user to employ follow-up
Doujutsu. As with all fascination conditions, obvious aggressive behaviour ends the effect
immediately.
Will over Blood: The Ketsuryūgan allows its user to affect liquids with high iron contents,
such as blood. This has led to the development of some truly terrifying techniques, but the
most fundamental power is of the user to manipulate the trickling of his own blood and that
of his opponents. First, the user is entirely immune to bleeding. Second, by spending a move
action and by focusing his gaze upon any opponent that has taken Piercing or Slashing
damage in the last turn, and that hasn’t received healing yet, the user can cause the target
to immediately begin bleeding, taking 1 point of bleed damage per turn, this increases by +1
at level 6, 11 and 16. If a target is already bleeding, this additional bleed damage stacks with
previous bleeding. Any form of healing halts this bleeding, as does a medicine roll DC 15.
Tactile Genjutsu: While the Ketsuryūgan is active, the user can apply any Doujutsu through
a touch attack instead of catching an opponent’s eyes. This removes the increased DC
granted by Eyes of the Dragon, but allows them to target individuals that specifically avert
their gaze. This requires a touch attack as part of the casting of the Doujutsu.
Genjutsu: Ketsuryūgan
Tags: Genjutsu, Gaze, Requires: Ketsuryūgan active
Lvl: 6 Rank: B-Class LDC: 24
Time: Special
Components: C
Range: Short Duration: Special
Saving Throw: Will negates
Chakra Cost: Special
Effect: Similar to the Genjutsu: Sharingan, this Doujutsu allows its user to place their victims
under powerful Genjutsu effects with a single gaze. When the user employs this technique,
they must choose one of the effects below at the time of casting. To employ this Genjutsu,
the target must currently be under the sway of the Ketsuryūgan’s Hypnotic Eyes. succeeding
at any will save to break one of the following techniques, breaks the target free of the
Hypnotic eyes. While the user is employing this particular technique, he needs not pay the
usual upkeep cost of the Ketsuryūgan.
Draconic Domination: Through this technique, the user creates near-mindless slaves to do
his bidding. The target makes a will save immediately, if they fail the user spends one minute
to put them under the user’s swey. This results in a brainwashed minion that can be given
only simple, one-sentence orders. While under this Genjutsu the target is staggered, as the
users will and its own will constantly vie for control. This technique can only be employed
upon a target with a HD of 5 less than the user's Genjutsu skill. As such, a user with 16
Genjutsu skill ranks could dominate a HD 11 opponent. Using this Technique costs 6
Chakra.
Extract Brain: This was often thought as one of the more feared applications of the
Ketsuryūgan, as it allows the Chinoike to extract information buried deep in the target's
mind. If the target fails its save, the user can spend 10 minutes in deep concentration to sift
through a target's mind to extract 1 piece of information that can be answered with a brief
one-sentence answer. For each 10 minutes spent, the user can extract an additional piece of
information. Up to 1 piece of information can be extracted per target, for every 5 Genjutsu
skill rank the target has. A successful Will save negates this ability. This technique costs 4
Chakra per 10 minutes spent extracting information.
Mind Trap: By layering Genjutsu upon his own mind, the user of Ketsuryūgan can trap a
target that attempts to place the user under a Doujutsu. Using this technique costs 5 points
of a Chakra and can be activated as an immediate action when an opponent attempts to
place the user under Doujutsu Genjutsu or when someone attempts to read the user’s mind.
The target must attempt an immediate will save, on a success their actions proceed
unhindered. On a failure, the target’s attempt is foiled and his mind is locked inside a dream
world where he sees what the Ketsuryūgan user wants him to see. The target is knocked
unconscious while within the world, each turn after the first the target can attempt a new will
save to wake up. If he fails three will saves in a row, he’s knocked out for the next 24 hours
as his mind is tormented inside the dream world, taking 2d4 points of Wisdom and Charisma
damage. This technique does not require the target to be subject to the Hypnotic Eyes
ability.
Rinnegan
Sharingan Perceptions (Ex): While the Rinnegan is active, you gain the bonuses as if you
had a Mangekyou Sharingan active. You can activate your Susano’o and derived
techniques, but not your Mangekyo Sharingan or ordinary Sharingan Techniques.
Overwhelming Chakra (Ex): You gain a bonus to your Chakra pool equal to four times your
level. You gain a bonus to your Chakra reserve equal to four times your level.
Visual Prowess (Ex): The character gains the ability to See through Chakra while the
Rinnegan is active.
Chakra nature mastery (Ex): You gain access to all five basic chakra natures.
Black Chakra Receivers (Ex): You can spontaneously generate Black Chakra Receivers,
these can be embedded into other living beings, allowing you to transmit your chakra over
great distances. This not only grants them the visual prowess of the RInnegan, but also
allows you to see through their eyes. A Black Chakra Receiver can also be used as a
weapon, in this case it functions as a Master crafted Tanto. Except it deals Bludgeoning and
Piercing Damage. Black Chakra Receivers can only be created while the Rinnegan is active.
Special: Black Chakra Receivers can be implanted into corpses, allowing you to utilise your
chakra to animate them and control them as if you’d control yourself. An animated corpse
can’t be of a level higher than your own minus 5. The corpse cannot use any of the abilities it
had in life, only its physical ability scores, Bab and Saves remain. It gains your mental ability
scores. However, a Corpse gains your Rinnegan and the Visual prowess of your Rinnegan,
moreover you can invest a corpse with a single Path ability, for it to use at your direction.
Thanks to your advanced Chakra control, you can direct up to six different corpses at once,
each acting as their own individual entities, though at your complete direction. For each of
these paths, you’ve animated you have the penalty of one negative level.

Effect: This technique grants you the ability to use the summoning technique to call upon
any creature of your choice. You need no Blood pacts and have access to Elites and
Paragons right off the bat. However all of your creatures possess the Rinnegan, granting you
access to their field of vision. Furthermore they’re all pierced with Black Chakra receivers
(See above), which allows you to fuel them with your chakra as needed. None of your
creatures can speak, though some of them may employ Jutsu all the same. You can also
use this technique to summon your allies to you, you must first invest these allies with some
of your chakra requiring a chakra control roll DC 20 and paying 5 points of chakra. Once
done these can be summoned at will.

Components: C
Range: 100 ft. Duration: Instant
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 2
Effect: You target a single creature within 100 ft of you, roll Ninjutsu against the target's
CMD. On a success, the target is instantly pulled through the intervening space, to land in a
square right in front of you, in a square of your choosing. You must have a direct line of
effect to the target you chose to pull.
Almighty Push
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Rinnegan Active
Lvl: 15 Rank: S-Class LDC: 27
Time: 1 Standard action
Components: C
Range: 10 ft burst Duration: Instant
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 5
Effect: You can push anything within 10ft of you directly away from you. You roll Ninjutsu
against the CMB of anyone within this area, on success they’re flung backwards to the
perimeter of this area plus an additional 30ft, taking 6d6 points of bludgeoning damage. For
each additional 5 points of chakra the user spends, he can double the area of effect. This
effect stacks, Spending an additional 15 points of chakra would increase the range to 80ft.
For each additional 20ft something is flung, it takes an additional 2d6 points of damage. For
each additional doubling of range, the technique needs to cool down for an additional round.
Avoidance Technique: The user can utilize this technique as an avoidance maneuver
whenever someone comes within range of the technique, or fire any physical ranged attack
at him. The user then rolls Ninjutsu against the DC of technique, the Atk roll of an attack or
the CMD of an enemy. On a success the attacks or techniques are turned away. Enemies
are affected by the technique as per normal.
Special: This technique cannot be used on the round following its most recent use.
Effect: The user creates a black sphere of extreme gravity between their hands, that they
then hurl either at a target or into the sky where it generates a powerful attractive force,
pulling everything in the vicinity to it until a large satellite is created from the rubble. The
technique is often used as a method of restraining a target and sealing them away. The
Technique can be used in one of two ways, targeted or area.
Area: When used as an area, it pulls in everything within its area over the course of 3
rounds. Each round, targets must make a successful Fortitude save or be pulled to the
satellite, to subsequently be buried by ruble. Each turn within this area, anyone without the
Rinnegan takes 5d10 points of Bludgeoning damage. If a target gets stuck to the satellite it
will take 10d8 points of Bludgeoning damage per turn as the gravitational forces keep pulling
a target in towards the core. Each turn a target can attempt to free themselves with a
successful DC 30 Strength check, otherwise a target is considered pinned for as long as
they’re trapped within the satellite.
Targeted: When used against a target, the user must make a ranged touch attack. On a
success the target takes 10d8 points of bludgeoning damage, begins to float into the air and
pulls additional terrain matter onto the target. If the target does not succeed on a Fortitude
save, this goes on for 3 turns, wherein the target of the technique takes 10d8 points of
bludgeoning damage as the gravitational forces continue to crush him from all sides, while
rubble pummels him from without. A target is considered pinned for as long as they’re
trapped within the satellite, but can break free with a successful DC 30 Strength Check.
Whatever way this technique is used, the satellite’s formation completely wrecks the nearby
area, crushing buildings, uprooting trees, and pulling up water. Creating difficult terrain within
a 300 ft. area of the technique.
Satellites are permanent and remain in the air, hovering 100 ft. above ground, until
destroyed. A Satellite has Hardness 15 and 200 hit points. Breaking a satellite frees the
target within.
If a Tailed Beast is ever the target of this technique, they gain no save and their chakra is
completely sealed, making them unable to access it. Additionally, they do not gain any
strength check to break free and can only be freed from outside interference.

Lvl: 15 Rank: S-Class LDC: 27
Time: 1 Standard action
Components: M, C
Range: Touch Duration: Instant
Saving Throw: Special, see text
Chakra Cost: 6
Effect: This path allows the wielder of the Rinnegan to extract the soul of someone to
absorb. Absorbing a soul refreshes your chakra, granting you one point of chakra for your
reserve, equal to the HD of the soul you’ve absorbed. This only goes for sentient beings. By
absorbing a soul you’re also afforded the chance to sift through its mind, recovering any bit
of intel you might desire. This includes the knowledge about hidden or forbidden Jutsu. To
utilize this ability you must first succeed at a touch attack, as a standard action, then the
target is allowed a Fortitude or Will save, their choice. Failure instantly slays a target if
they’re HD is at least 5 below your own, otherwise they take 2d6 points of damage per user
level, success leaves them exhausted from the tug-of-war between their souls.
Preta Path
This path allows the user to absorb chakra, this can be done in one of two ways.

Effect: The user of this technique can absorb Chakra with a touch, a simple melee touch
attack drains 2d6 points of chakra from a target. Half of this Chakra is added to your own
Chakra pool. (Pool first, then Reserve). If the user is grappling a target, he drains 4d6 points
of chakra every turn, adding only half back to his pool as with the melee touch attack.
Effect: The user can shield himself from Ninjutsu. Once per round as a free action, the user
can absorb a Ninjutsu that includes the user in the area of effect. Absorbing such a ninjutsu
negates its effects as well as adding half of its cost to your chakra pool. The user can also
prepare an action to absorb incoming Ninjutsu, allowing him to perform 3 of such
absorptions in a round.

of three ways; Interrogation, Reconstruction and Transportation.
Interrogation: The user must successfully grapple a target before trying to interrogate them.
Once grappled the user can initiate the interrogation, the target is instantly afforded a will
save in an attempt to negate the Interrogation effect. On a failure, the target is paralyzed
while the King of Hell manifests behind the user, and grabs a hold of an apparition of the
target's life-force. This apparition takes the form of an engorged tongue, held by the king of
hell. The user can then interrogate the target as he sees fit, however should the target lie
their life-force will be consumed by the King of Hell and be instantly killed unless they
succeed on a fortitude save, Failure instantly slays a target if they’re HD is at least 5 below
your own, otherwise they take 2d6 points of damage per user level. On a success they take
1d6 points of damage per user level as the King of Hell tugs on the target's life-force
Activating this ability costs 5 points of Chakra.
Reconstruction: With this the user can conjure the King of hell, doing so allows the king of
hell to consume the corpse of anyone currently imbedded with your black chakra receivers
and controlled by you. Over the course of three full round actions the corpse is reconstructed
and brought back to “life”, allowing it to be controlled by the Rinnegan wielder once more.
Doing so costs 10 points of chakra.
Transportation: The user conjures the king of hell to utilize the hellish dimension within it, to
store items and people. Anything of size Large or smaller can be stored within, with no limit
to what can be contained in total. Anything within is held in suspended animation, being
completely unconscious with no need for food, drink, rest and without aging. Anything stored
within can be expelled as a standard action, by the wielder of the Naraka path. Using this
ability costs 5 points of chakra.
Asura Path
With this path, the wielder of the Rinnegan can manifest a myriad of technological
advantages thanks to his ability to manipulate material forces.
Special: When the Asura path is bequeathed onto a corpse through the Black Chakra
Receivers, the corpse gains an entirely mechanical appearance and increases its natural
armor class bonus by +4 and increases its strength by +4.

Lvl: 15 Rank: S-Class LDC: 27
Time: 1 Swift action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Maintained 3 minutes
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: Special
Effect: Through the use of this technique, the Rinnegan wielder can manifest additional
arms or other weaponry, without additional cost he can also cause the manifested
appendages to retreat back into his body. The user can manifest up to 4 additional arms, 2
additional faces and 1 tail.
The arms grant you 4 Slam attacks dealing 1d6 points of damageThe arms can also
alternate the type of damage they deal, by manifesting mechanical weapons from them.
Such a weapon can be any melee weapon with which the user is proficient, however if a
weapon requires two hands it also needs two arms to manifest. Each arm manifested costs
3 chakra, and every transformation into a weapon costs 2 points of chakra.
The additional faces cost 3 Chakra points and grant you all-around vision.
With the tail the user can manifest a large serrated blade from his back, this blade functions
much like a prehensile tail. This grants the user a Tail-blade attack, dealing 2d8 points of
slashing damage and 1d6 points of bleeding damage. Manifesting this tail costs 5 points of
chakra
All of these attacks are secondary, taking a -5 penalty on attack rolls. Any manifested limb
functions with +4 Strength.
Additionally, as a move action the user of the Asura path can propel himself forward through
a burst of Chakra from his feet, allowing him to cover 60ft of distance. This can be used
during a charge, increasing your distance of a charge by an additional 60ft.
Effect: The user can choose to fire one of his hands, including those manifested by Asura
Modifications, as a ranged attack. The hand flies off as a rocket, requiring a ranged attack to
hit. On a hit, the target takes 5d8 points of bludgeoning damage. The hand itself remains
unharmed, as it’s protected by chakra. It also returns to the user at the end of the following
round. The hand's power is such that it ignores 10 points of Hardness and Damage
Reduction.
Effect: The user can fire a volley of 6 rockets, covering a 10ft area up to 100 ft away per
rocket. Each rocket deals 6d6 points of bludgeoning damage, a successful reflex save
halves this damage.

Chakra Cost: Special
Effect: The user can also manifest a powerful Chakra cannon from an arm or the top of his
head, utilizing this cannon requires a full round action and deals 1d10 points of damage per
Chakra spent to activate it, up to a maximum of the user's level. The ray is a 15ft wide 100ft
long line. A successful reflex save halves the damage.
Effect: The user sacrifices his remaining chakra, and likely his own life to revive someone
from death. The number of targets the user can revive is equal to ten HD per point of chakra
spent as well as ten HD for each hit point you had left before using this technique. As such
with 50 remaining chakra and 100 HP you’d be able to revive up to 1500 HDs worth of
people. Once this technique concludes, the user must roll a fortitude save with a DC of 17 +
1 for each 10 HD worth of individual they have revived in total, over their life.
Sharingan
Unbeknownst to many, the Sharingan eye doesn’t just allow a wielder to copy the jutsu and
bodily movements of others, but also boosts anything involving reading lips, remembering a
string of numbers or other kinds of sight based detail, to inhuman levels. Any such checks
gain a +6 bonus. The wielder is also able to see chakra (Not the base ability) for as long as
the Sharingan Eye is active, this allows him to identify whether or not someone is under a
Genjutsu, and identify which Genjutsu is currently affecting a target with minimal effort
gaining a +4 bonus on such a check, moreover the user can recognize a person by the
signature and colour of his chakra this is done with a perception check opposing the targets
deception check.

Saving Throw: Will negates
Chakra Cost: 14
Effect: With a single glance, the user of this technique can force nightmarish and world
altering genjutsu on his victims, overpowering them and bringing them to their knees in
service.
A target that fails their initial save, they fall under the sway of the techniques user, as the
user projects images into the target's mind to ensure cooperation. A target controlled
through this technique can be given commands by the user, either verbally or through eye
contact, and will obey them to the best of their abilities. These commands can be as simple
or as intricate as the user wants them to be. Allies of the target can make a Perception
check with a DC equal to the 11 + the users Deception skill modifier. If the ally succeeds,
they notice the target is behaving weirdly.
If a target is made to take an action that is directly against its nature or obviously suicidal, it
gains another save to break the effects of Coercion: Sharingan.
If a tailed beast is targeted by this technique, they take -10 penalty on their will save and
they cannot voluntarily try to break the Genjutsu. If used against a Jinchuriki, the user can
hypnotise the tailed beast to block a Jinchuriki’s access to the powers granted to them by
their tailed beast.
Mastery
At mastery step 1 and 3, the technique's duration extends by 1 day.
At mastery step 5 the technique's duration changes to Maintained 1 day.
Mangekyou Sharingan
Through years of practice and much luck you’ve unlocked the ultimate Sharingan Eye,
though you’ve had to lose someone or something you loved dearly. Only this loss can
awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan and all the benefits that come with it.
Benefit: The Character immediately gains the use 2 of the “Mangekyou” Jutsu, and must
assign each to one of his eyes, furthermore he gains the use of The Mangekyo Sharingan
Eye ability.
Mangekyo Sharingan Eye (Ex): The character can activate the Mangekyo Sharingan eye
as a free-action, that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. The Sharingan Eye must be
active to activate this ability. While active the cost of the Sharingan eye increases to 2 every
2nd turn. Or 2 every 5 turns if the user has Extended Sharingan. While active the bonus from
Sharingan Eye’s Eye of Insight and Eye of Hypnotism increase by +1. Because this
technique is so straining, the user runs a very real risk of becoming blind. Activating
Mangekyo Sharingan imposes 1 point of Sharingan Blindness, this cost strikes every time
the upkeep is paid.
Sharingan Blindness counts as ability damage and heals at the rate of 1 per day, full bed
rest and complete restricted use of the Sharingan eye or Mangekyo Sharingan eye doubles
points healed in a day.
One-eyed Blindness: All penalties are halved, rounded down due to the fact of the
blindness only descending upon one eye.
Acquired by: The Character must have a pair of Mangekyo Sharingan eyes implanted from
another person who awakened them, while you yourself have managed to awaken yours.
.
Benefit: The User will never take penalties to their Attack, Defense, Sight-based Perception,
Reflexes or be permanently blinded from use of the Mangekyo Sharingan. The Sharingan
Blindness points only work towards accounting for the level of exhaustion a character feels.
Effect: Like with its parent Technique, the Genjutsu: Mangekyou Sharingan is an extremely
versatile technique and builds upon the concepts of the Genjutsu: Sharingan technique.
Similar to the parent technique, this technique gives access to a broad variety of effects,
though much stronger than the basic Genjutsu: Mangekyou Sharingan.
Stun: This effect requires an immediate action, if the target fails a will save they’re stunned til
the beginning of their next round.
Sleep: This effect requires a standard action. If the target fails their save, they fall asleep for
5 minutes.
Major Illusion: This effect requires a standard action. If the target fails their save they fall
under your genjutsu. You can create multiple alterations, changing the appearance, feel and
smell of 50 cubic feet. This effect lasts 5 minutes..
Genjutsu Link: You can spend a swift action to send someone a message, this message can
be anything that can be related in a 20 minutes conversation. This can be achieved through
images or actual talks. This takes place over the course of an instant and the recipient can
reply in kind.
Awakening your ability in the other eye, works exactly like learning a new technique however
you need no teacher. Techniques with an ability in both eyes, function similarly. You learn
the ability of one eye, training to learn the ability of the other eye.
Amaterasu
Tags: Ninjutsu, Fire Release, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan Active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard Action
Components: C
Range: Short Duration: Special
Saving Throw: Reflex, Special See text
Chakra Cost: 7
Effects: Often called the Pinnacle of the fire release, though a misconception. While
Amaterasu is indeed similar to fire style, it is also so much more. Amaterasu ignites the black
flames of the Blaze Release, fire that burns so hot it actually burns fire. Amaterasu is one of
the techniques one can awaken along with their Mangekyou Sharingan, Amaterasu never
needs a roll to hit, it always hits where the user looks. The target of Amaterasu is afforded a
single reflex save at a +5 difficulty. On a failed save the target takes 10d6 points of Blaze
damage, and instantly catches on fire dealing 2d6 points of blaze damage every turn. This
fire burns for 7 days and 7 nights and thus cannot be put out, and must be removed by
taking off clothes, scraping off flesh or other such actions. Whatever the case the target must
deal 2d6 points of damage to himself, in order to remove the afflicted area. The only way to
quell the flames of Amaterasu other than removing the afflicted area is by sealing it with an
“Advanced sealing: Fire seal Technique”.
This Technique is extremely straining on the caster, causing the eye that casts it to bleed,
afflicting the user with 4 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Mastery
Mastery level 2 and 5 decreases the Sharingan blindness by 1 point.
Kagutsuchi
Tags: Ninjutsu, Fire Release, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: Special
Components: C
Range: Special Duration: Special
Saving Throw: Special
Chakra Cost: 3
Effects: This technique must be coupled with the Amaterasu, it is unique in that it allows the
user to apply shape transformation to the black flames of the Amaterasu flames, effectively
allowing the user to develop derived techniques for the black flames.
Additionally, whenever the user employs Amaterasu he can employ one of the following
basic shape transformations to modify the black flames. Each use costs 3 Chakra and
causes 1 Sharingan Blindness.
Cone: The Amaterasu flames extend outward from the user in a 15ft cone, due to the spread
the Amaterasu only gains a +2 to its Reflex DC.
Line: The flames of Amaterasu spike outward in a 20ft line. Due to this shape extending
effect, the Amaterasu only gains +3 to its Reflex DC.
Burst: Black Flames shoot out from the user in a 10ft burst around himself.
Cloak: The user cloaks himself in the black flames of Amaterasy for 2 rounds, anyone who
attacks the user with unarmed attacks takes 5d6 Blaze damage and catches fire like with
Amaterasu, which can be avoided with a simple ordinary Reflex Save. Weapons that strike
the black flames are also at risk, they catch fire like anyone else would, however weapons
that aren’t somehow Chakra Enhanced, like the 7 Ninja Swords of Kirigakure, do not apply
their Hardness against the Blaze damage.
Weapon Coat: The user coats his weapon with Amaterasu flames, thanks to his Kagutsuchi
he can prevent his weapon from taking damage from the flames. A weapon coated with
black flames deals 3d6 points of Blaze damage on every hit, catching fire from a weapon
coated flame only deals 1d6 points of Blaze damage per turn.
Lastly, the user can manipulate existing Amaterasu flames. This allows him to extinguish the
flames or if enough is present, he can manipulate it into one of the above techniques. If used
this way, Kagutsuchi costs 5 Chakra and causes 3 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Tsukuyomi
Tags: Genjutsu, Gaze, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard Action
Components: C
Range: Short Duration: Continuous: 1 round
Saving Throw: Will negates
Chakra Cost: 8
Effect: This is the epitome of Gaze Genjutsu, this technique is one of the Techniques you
can awaken along with your mangekyou sharingan. This technique allows the user extensive
control over the victims perception of time and the victims senses, allowing the caster to
deliver huge amounts of mental punishment or to deliver intimate messages in short time.
When used as an attack Tsukuyomi has disastrous consequences for the target, on a failed
saving throw the user can trap the target in a dream world torturing it for 24 hours, or so it
feels for it lasts only an instant in the real world. This technique deals 1d4+2 points of
Wisdom and Charisma drain per day the victim is trapped and tortured, the Technique also
deals 5d6 points of hit point damage, causing blood to seep from the victims eyes and ears.
When used to deliver a message the caster can show his target whatever he desires for him
to see, in so far the scenes doesn’t extend past the time of Tsukuyomi’s ability These scenes
can play out exactly how the caster wishes, though never maliciously.
Mastery: Mastery Level 2 and 5 allows the caster to extend the attack of Tsukuyomi by one
additional day, each added day costs an extra 6 points of chakra. Each day increases the
Wisdom and charisma drain by 1d4 and 2d6 points of Hit point damage.
Limbo
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard action, Special
Components: C
Range: Medium Duration: Continuous: 11 rounds
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 7
Effects: Limbo is a rather unknown technique, even amongst those well-versed in the
mysteries of the Mangekyo Sharingan. Limbo is sat in both eyes of a user, which each
projects a clone-like shadow of the user into a dimension that barely overlaps with the one
inhabited by the user.
These clones are completely invisible to anyone but those with the Rinnegan or Byakugan.
The clones are impervious to damage, have a fly speed equal to your land speed but are
otherwise exact copies of you. Clones cannot perform any techniques, but they can perform
other actions you might take and their unarmed attacks deal two dice extra damage.
When a clone is standing between you and an enemy, it will throw itself in front of attacks,
but this only happens with attacks aimed at you specifically. When a clone intercepts an
attack for you, reduce its remaining duration by 3 rounds.
Activating Limbo incurs 4 points of Sharingan blindness. The Limbo clones are only
manifested for as long as the users Mangekyo is active.
Master
At mastery Step 3 and 5 you gain an additional clone.
Kamui

Time: Special, See text
Components: C
Range: Special, See text Duration: Special, See text
Saving Throw: Will, special
Chakra Cost: Special, See text
Effect: Kamui is a Jutsu which is awakened alongside the Sharingan, however unlike most
other Mangekyo techniques, Kamui counts as two techniques. Each part of the Technique
fits in one eye.
The possessor of Kamui has a pocket dimension linked to his eyes, this dimension is plain
looking, but resembles some sort of big open space. Any power of Kamui revolves around
this pocket dimension. Both the right eye and left eye of Kamui allows the possessor to
teleport himself by teleporting himself through the pocket dimension the user can appear
almost instantly wherever he wants to, this use is a Standard action that provokes an attack
of opportunity. This teleport has a range of 10 miles per level of the caster. The use of this
ability costs 5 points of chakra and causes 2 points of Sharingan Blindness. The user can
also remain within the pocket dimension instead of teleporting straight out, exiting his pocket
dimension after an extended stay doesn’t cost extra.
Right eye: The Right eye of Kamui allows the user to Teleport anything he touches to the
Pocket Dimension, and from there he can eject it as he sees fit or interact with it in the
pocket dimension. This use of Kamui requires a Touch attack, if successful the target is
transported to the pocket dimension. Unless the victim possesses Kamui himself he’s unable
to escape this dimension, however as this dimension is beyond ordinary limitations he will
never starve or dehydrate but might age. Every day within the pocket dimension the victim is
allowed a will save. This use of Kamui costs 8 points of chakra and causes 3 points of
Sharingan Blindness.
The right eye also allows the user to become intangible for up to 5 minutes, while intangible
the caster cannot be affected by anything physical, however he in turn cannot use any other
parts of Kamui or jutsu while intangible. The target can become corporal for 1 round by
spending 2 points of chakra. The use of this Kamui ability costs 6 points of chakra and
causes 4 points of Sharingan blindness.
Left eye: The Left eye of Kamui has only one power, but perhaps the most powerful one.
The Left eye can create warp holes at range, this is done by focusing on a specific point in
space and then willing the jutsu to happen. This creates a rift in reality that warps whatever
touches it into the pocket dimension, this can be used as an attack or to teleport objects or
people at range.
Attack: The caster must roll a touch attack, if he hits he forces the target to make a reflex
saving throw. On a successful save the target takes half damage. On a failed save the target
takes 2d6 points of damage per level of the caster. Using Kamui as an attack has a Medium
range. Using Kamui like this costs 8 Chakra and causes 4 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Warp: Kamui at range is too imprecise to teleport enemy targets away completely, if
attempted the technique just ends up as an attack. Though if coordinated with an ally the
user can teleport said ally into the pocket dimension and back out, with a use of his Kamui.
Once warped the caster can eject the target at any square within sight(Max 500 feet range).
Using Kamui like this is less violent and straining, costing only 6 points of chakra and causes
3 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Mastery
Mastery level 2 and 5 decreases the Sharingan Blindness penalties of Kamui by 1.
Kotan-Kar
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: Special
Components: C
Range: Short Duration: Special
Saving Throw: Special
Chakra Cost: Special.
Effect: Kotan-Kar, the world-making-god, the eyes so named, allows their possessor to
reshape themself and the world around them. Kotan-Kar takes up both Mangekyou
Sharingan eyes.
Right Eye: Through the use of this Right-eye technique, the user can manifest objects, and
structures, made out of pure, hardened chakra. These constructs can be of any size, while
it’s usually used to create weapons, it can also create temporary battlefield structures or the
like. With commitment, the user can cause the chakra constructs to solidify and become
permanent, by absorbing nearby elements such as trees, stones, earth, etc. Making a tool
permanent costs 15 points of Chakra and 2 points of Sharingan Blindness. Making a
Structure permanent is much more expensive, costing 30 points of Chakra and incurs 4
points of Sharingan Blindness
Equipment and Tools: The user can create any handheld tool, item or piece of equipment.
Using part of Kotan-Kar costs 5 points of Chakra and incurs 2 points of Sharingan blindness
and takes a Move action to activate, but otherwise remains in duration for as long as the
Mangekyou Sharingan is activated. Any tools, weapons or armour created with this
technique are considered Legendary crafted. Once activated, the user can manifest a new
weapon, tool or armour as a Swift action each turn without additional chakra expenditure.
Below are some examples.
- Weapon: The user can create any weapon and is proficient in its use.
- Armour: Creating an armour from hardened chakra, grants the user a +6 armour
bonus, however as created by the user it doesn’t incur any check penalty or
reduction in Dexterity.
- Chains: The user can manifest Chakra chains around a target, binding them. This
requires a successful ranged touch attack. These chains have a hardness of 10 and
has 30 hit points, and a Break DC of 25
- Stakes: The user manifests a mass of stakes, sending them at an enemy with
incredibly high velocity. The user must succeed at a ranged attack, on a success he
deals 5d8 points of bludgeoning and piercing damage and pins the target to the
nearest surface as the stakes pierce the target's flesh. This functions as the target is
grappled and pinned. A DC 25 Strength check can free the target, as can ingenious
use of other techniques.
- Material Foci: The user can supply any material focus for his techniques, as long as
the item in question doesn’t involve a previous technique. Such as Sealing tags or
other chakra charged items.
Structures: Perhaps the most grandiose ability of the Kotan-Kar is its ability to create chakra
structures. These structures are much greater in size and as such cost a great deal more as
well as straining the user’s eye significantly. Any structure created from this use has a
hardness of 30 and 200 hit points. The most common structures are walls and towers, as
they’re the most simple thing to bring forth. Roughly the user can create roughly up to 10 10-
ft. Squares as part of a structure. Details can be added at will, such as ornamentation as well
as doors and furniture. Creating a structure is a full-round action. A structure lasts for the
duration of the Mangekyou Sharingan.
- Wall: A wall created with this technique, is up to 100 feet wide and equally as tall. It
blocks any kind of movement through it.
- Dome: Similar to the wall, the Dome has an area up to 30 ft. burst around a target. A
reflex save allows a target to escape, in case it’s unwilling.
- Bridge: Merely a flat wall.
- Tower: A tower is 30 feet tall, and 30 feet cylindrical shape inside, with stairs leading
up.
Left Eye: Where the right eye is turned outward, to the world around the user. The Left eye
looks inward, upon the user himself. The Left eye allows the user to reshape himself, his
mind and body. This shows itself in a variety of applications.
- Body Structure: The user can change the structure of his body, make himself
stronger or weaker. Change how he looks, make himself taller or smaller, younger or
older. These changes last till they are changed and have the following implications.
Each application takes a Standard action, unless otherwise noted.
- Boost: Grant yourself a Physical ability boost of +2, this can be done once
and costs 10 points of Chakra and 2 points of Sharingan Blindness. This
application takes one full-round action.
- Redeploy: Move around any physical ability boosts, though still following the
rules of overlapping ability boost based on when they were received. This
costs 5 points of Chakra and 1 Point of sharingan Blindness. This application
takes one full-round action.
- Purge body: The user can forcefully eject anything within his body, that’s
foreign or unwelcome. This means he can immediately cure any disease and
poison, as well as cause any foreign object within to eject themselves. This
cost 10 points of Chakra and Incurs 3 points of Sharingan Blindness.
- Repair: The user can repair any damage done to his body. The user can heal
himself of 30 hit points, for 4 points of Chakra. Or heal himself of 2d4 points of
physical ability damage and ability drain to each of his abilities for 15 points
of Chakra and 3 points of Sharingan Blindness.
- Morphing: The user can change his physical shape, make himself younger or
older, taller or shorter, change his hair colour, skin colour, eye colour, etc.
This change takes an hour to enact and has an instant duration. Since the
user can forcefully change the physical age of his body, he cannot die from
old age. If the user attempts to change himself to look like someone specific,
they gain a +15 competence bonus on their Deception check to pass as the
target. Lastly, the user can change his size one size category away from his
current size, incurring all the bonuses or penalties of this change. This
application costs 10 points of Chakra and incurs 3 points of Sharingan
blindness
- Natural Weapon: The user can form any natural weapon from his body, this
costs him 6 points of Chakra and 1 point of Sharingan Blindness. The
duration is instant. This application takes one full-round action.
- Mind Structure: The user can also reshape his mind, doing this allows him to make
himself smarter, more charismatic, manipulate his memories and feelings as well as
protecting his mind from incursion. Each application takes a Standard action, unless
otherwise noted.
- Boost: Grant yourself a Mental ability boost of +2, this can be done once and
costs 10 points of Chakra and 2 points of Sharingan Blindness. This
application takes one full-round action.
- Redeploy: Move around any mental ability boosts, though still following the
rules of overlapping ability boost based on when they were received. This
costs 5 points of Chakra and 1 Point of sharingan Blindness. This application
takes one full-round action.
- Defend: As a Swift action, costing 10 points of Chakra and Incurring 1 point of
Sharingan blindness, the user can make himself immune to Mind-affecting
effects for 1 minute.
- Memory Manipulation: The user can choose to delete, remodel or hide any
memory of his choice. This can be done as a swift action to simply remove a
memory for a short while, it takes 1 standard action if the user wants to
remodel a memory and a full-round action if the user wishes to hide a
memory for a longer period, for it to be retrieved later. The user can also use
this technique to change how he feels about certain subjects and individuals.
For instance he could use this application to make himself love or hate
someone. Whatever the case, this use costs 10 points of chakra and incurs 1
point of Sharingan Blindness.
- Repair: heal himself of 1d4 points of mental ability damage and ability drain to
each of his abilities for 15 points of Chakra and 3 points of Sharingan
Blindness.
Mastery
Mastery Step 2 and 4 decreases the Sharingan Blindness penalties of Kotan-Kar by 1.
At Mastery Step 3 and 5 the user can create an additional physical or mental boost, chosen
when the Mastery step is attained.

Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard action

Saving Throw: Will negates
Chakra Cost: 15
Effect: This is considered the ultimate genjutsu, it’s one of the techniques awakened with
the mangekyo sharingan, however Kotoamatsukami settles in both of the user’s eyes.
Kotoamatsukami allows the user to implant his thoughts, manipulate the senses and just
about anything else to force a target under the casters control. The target is allowed an initial
save, on a successful roll the target notices nothing and might not even have noticed the
technique trying to affect him. On a failed save the caster can deliver a command or set of
commands which it then forces the target to obey. The target will obey the orders for as long
as it possibly can, as the target believes the order comes from itself. Though each day it is
allowed a new save, after 3 failed saves the target internalizes the order and it becomes
what the target believes. All the effects of Kotoamatsukami are subtle and only noticeable by
highly skilled sensory ninja, capable of seeing chakra.
The command of Kotoamatsukami is so strong it can override any other methods of control.

Effects: This Mangekyou ability embodies both eyes of the wielder. They possess the power
to peer into a target’s spirit and read it. A skilled user may pour tidbits of his own spirit into a
target, changing his disposition or even empowering active Ninjutsu with hostile sentience
for it to willingly assault the users targets.
Reading: To peer into a target’s spirit, the user must focus both his Mitama eyes upon them
and pay the cost of 5 points of Chakra and take 2 points of Sharingan Blindness. The target
is then permitted a Will save, if the target fails the user can not only perfectly read their
emotional state but he also gains a perfect understanding of it and to which given emotions
relate. On a failed save the user still gains the same information, but only in relation to
himself. This is a Swift action.
Aramitama: The Right eye of Mitama carries the spirit of violence and rage, Aramitama. If
the user focuses the right eye upon a target he may instil it with a terrifying rage and
bloodthirst. The target must succeed at a Will save or enter into a rage in which it will attack
the nearest target to the exclusion of all else. Whenever a target of the enraged character
dies, for the duration of this effect, Continuous 1 minute, he chooses the next nearest target
to assault. While enraged a target gains +4 to hit, deals +8 additional damage on physical
attacks, their Fortitude, Reflex and Will save gain a +3 bonus but in their confusion their
armour class reduces by -4. If the target succeeds at the will save, they gain the rage
benefits without the mindless bloodthirst. The user can place himself under this rage effect,
without being affected by the mindless bloodthirst. The rage effect is followed by a minor
physical transformation, as the target becomes a slightly more bestial version of themselves.
The use of this technique costs 10 points of Chakra and incurs 4 points of Sharingan
Blindness. If used on a target, this is a Standard action, if used on the user this is a Swift
action.
Aramitama: Amanozako: The user of the Right eye of Rage can also focus this rage into the
world, manifesting the Aramitama: Amanozako. This being is manifested into the form of any
element within a short range, for instance Amanozako could be manifested if the sentience
of rage is poured into water or stone. Depending on the element, Amanozako manifests
different abilities. Amanozako is feared widely, as its power is said to rival that of the
Susano’o who supposedly spawned it. If spawned from a specific technique, Amanozako
may perform that technique as if it had learned it, as long as that technique is not higher than
level 14. (Read below for Specifics) Amanozako is a large, tauric beast with the upper body
of a naked woman and the lower part like a bipedal reptile. Her long hair flails wildly and her
maw is filled with rows of teeth like those of a shark. This technique is a Standard action to
use, costs 14 points of Chakra and Incurs 5 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Nigimitama: The Left eye of Tranquility, Nigimitama, places the target under a powerful
calming effect. This state of Tranquility leads those affected without the will to fight, they may
take no hostile action and cannot act directly against anyone, even those they see as hated
enemies. They’re spurred on to talk things out, rather than seeking aggression and threats,
during conversation, is the furthest thing on their mind. Unless the user has acted
aggressively against the target, in this current encounter, the target receives no save. If the
user has previously been aggressive, during the current encounter, the target gets a Will
save to negate. If attacked by anyone, while under this effect, the target may respond but
only towards the aggressor himself. This technique has a Focus duration, costs 8 points of
Chakra and incurs 3 points of Sharingan Blindness

Raiden
Tags: Ninjutsu, Lightning Release, Avoidance Defense +4, Requires: Mangekyou
Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Swift action
Components: C
Range: Medium Duration: Instant
Saving Throw: Fortitude, Partial
Chakra Cost: 7
Effects: The Technique known as Raiden is hailed as one of the most powerful and fastest
lightning style ninjutsu techniques in the world.
Raiden creates an electrical current around a target, to attract the ambient electrical energy
and cause it to surge into the target. This attack is so fast, anyone witnessing it reports it as
a simple, localized explosion of electricity.
The user must succeed at a ranged touch attack, on a success Raiden deals 6d8 points of
Lightning damage which ignores resistance to lightning. The target must then roll a fortitude
save to avoid being Stunned for 1d4 rounds as the strong electrical current binds their
muscles in cramps.
This technique is extremely straining on the caster, causing the eye that casts it to bleed,
afflicting the user with 4 points of Sharingan Blindness. Moreover the taxing nature of this
Jutsu prevents it from being used more than once every 1d4 rounds.
Kaminari
Tags: Ninjutsu, Lightning Release, Avoidance Bonus +5, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan
active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard action, special
Components: C
Range: Special Duration: Instant
Saving Throw: Reflex for half
Chakra Cost: 9
Effects: Using the Kaminari, the user vanishes with a thunder clamp only to reappear as a
lightning bolt that streaks across the field of battle before the user reforms once more in
another loud crash.
Anyone standing within a 10ft burst of the user when this technique is activated takes 5d8
points of sound damage and must succeed at a fortitude save DC 20 or be deafened. Then
the user can traverse a distance of 100ft as a lightning bolt, anyone struck takes 10d6 points
of lightning damage. A successful reflex saving throw reduces this damage by half. As the
user reappears anyone within 10ft at the spot where he reappears takes damage from the
Thunder Clap as indicated above. Using Kaminari this way incurs 2 points of Sharingan
blindness.
Avoidance: This technique can also be used as an avoidance technique, allowing the user to
swiftly assume the form of a lightning bolt to get out of the way of an attack. It otherwise
functions as above. Using Kaminari in this fashion incurs 4 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Kaminari can also be used as a form of transportation, this takes a full-round action and
causes the user to vanish in a thunder clap for him to appear again up to 3 miles away with a
stroke of lightning. Using Kaminari this way deals no damage to anyone. This incurs 3 points
of Sharingan Blindness.
Mastery
At mastery level 5, the transportation can be done as a standard action.
Tenjin
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard action, Special
Components: C
Range: Special Duration: Instant, Special
Saving Throw: Special
Chakra Cost: 6, Special
Effects: Tenjin is a unique Mangekyo ability in that its power lies primarily in the
manipulation of other Ninjutsu. Tenjin is one of the few techniques that take up two eye-
slots, as both eyes work in tandem with each other and together they can perform a third
technique. Tenjin has an Eye of Empowering which boosts the strength of Ninjutsu and an
Eye of Nullification which saps it’s power away. Together they can produce the Tenjin -
Reversal of Fortune.
Eye of Empowering: With his right eye, the user of Tenjin can empower any Ninjutsu
currently in effect or his own Ninjutsu which can be empowered just as he activates them. To
activate an ongoing Ninjutsu the user spends a standard action, spends 6 points of chakra
and takes one point of Sharingan Blindness. This increases the parameters of any Ninjutsu
by 50%, this includes duration, range, damage and so forth. When used to empower your
own Ninjutsu, it can be done immediately as you perform them, allowing you to empower
instant effects. This use can also be prepared to empower any instantaneous techniques not
of your own making, however this incurs 3 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Eye of Nullification: Utilizing his left eye, the user of Tenjin can draw chakra away from active
Ninjutsu - even if it is transformed. This dispels the technique outright, leaving no trace of its
existence whatsoever. To perform this technique, you spend a standard action, spend 6
points of chakra and incur 2 points of Sharingan blindness. Then you choose any active
technique within sight, roll your user level for this technique against that Techniques rank +
11. If you succeed, you immediately dispel the technique. This technique can also be used
as a prepared action, dispelling a technique as it’s formed.
Tenjin - Reversal of Fortune: This technique can only be performed if the user possesses
both the Eye of Empowering and Eye of Nullification. The user can turn energy absorbed by
the Eye of Nullification back out as an empowered version of the original technique. This
draws the dispelled technique into his Eye of Nullification, only to shoot it back out with his
Eye of Empowering as if the user had cast the technique himself originally. This also
increases all dependent variables by 50% as if using his Eye of Empowering. This costs 9
points of Chakra and 4 points of Sharingan Blindness in total.
Omoikane
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Swift action
Components: C
Range: Special Duration: 3 rounds
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 11, Special
Effects: With this incredibly powerful jutsu the user is able to not only warp time itself around
her, but record an imprint of an earlier version of herself which will spring into action after a
set amount of time.
Recording: The user records herself at the activation of this Jutsu, for the next three rounds
she gains a +2 bonus to hit, AC and Reflex saves as well as an extra attack at her highest
base attack bonus during a full-round attack action as well as 30ft of additional movement.
Once the 3 rounds have passed, the user disappears and reappears at the point where she
recorded herself in the exact same state as she was during the recording. This reset any
condition, HP loss, ability loss, chakra level etc. to the point of the user's recorded self. Only
Sharingan Blindness remains unaltered, after the three turns have passed. This use of the
Technique incurs 6 points of Sharingan Blindness. Effectively, the user sent herself forward
in time and left a time-stuttered clone in her stead, as she reaches the point of time
intersection the clone disappears and leaves its knowledge for the original.
Defensive Maneuver: Should the user ever decide to use this ability defensively, they can do
so by paying 15 points of Chakra and taking 5 points of Sharingan blindness. This sends
them one turn into the future, ensuring they avoid any hazzard this turn.
Mastery
At mastery level 2 and 4 you decrease the Sharingan Blindness of the Recording use of this
technique by 1.
At mastery level 3 and 5 you reduce the Sharingan Blindness of the Defensive maneuver by
1.
Yomi
Tags: Ninjutsu, Space-time, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Move action, special
Components: C
Range: Short Duration: Special
Saving Throw: Will save negates
Chakra Cost: 9
Effects: The user who commands the power of Yomi controls the malleable darkness of the
underworld, through the use of this technique the user can transport herself as well as any
guest she deigns to invite.
Doorway: The user of Yomi can transport herself to her own personal underworld, this is a
landscape of seemingly infinite roiling darkness. In this underworld the user need not eat,
drink or eliminate waste. However while within this underworld, the hungering darkness
absorbs minute amounts of chakra and therefore she can never recover chakra while resting
within. Using the ability in this fashion takes one full-round action to activate, costs 9 chakra
and incurs 2 points of Sharingan Blindness. The user can bring one friendly target for 2
points of additional chakra they spend. Leaving this underworld costs no additional chakra
and will always return targets to where they entered.
Challenge: The user now calls out a challenge to a single target within range, this challenge
takes the form of the cloud of darkness that seeks to shift the target and the user of this
ability into the Yomi underworld. If the target fails its save, they are transported there along
with the user for 1 round per user level. While here, the hungering abyss siphons their
Chakra, draining 2d4 points of chakra away per turn. Only knocking the user unconscious
will return them to the world prematurely or by the will of the users. As the user has complete
control of the Yomi underworld, there’s nowhere within which a target can hide, they can in
fact never be further away than 60ft from the user at any given time. Using the ability in this
fashion costs 11 points of chakra and incurs 4 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Mastery
While within the Yomi underworld, the user can affect the malleable terrain. This permits her
to call down tendrils of darkness to harass foes, bring up clouds of roiling darkness to block
out sight or form weapons of pure darkness to send at the enemy.
Mastery level 1: To conjure the cloud of darkness, the user simply spends 4 points of chakra
and a cloud rises up to block all vision in a 15ft radius around the target. This cloud is so
thick, that anyone standing further away than 5ft has total concealment.
Mastery level 2: Lastly the user can bring forth weapons from the underworld stuff, sending
them at their enemies. This costs 3 points of chakra per shot, the user rolls a ranged attack
roll on a hit the void-matter pierces an enemy dealing 4d6 plus the users intelligence
modifier, this damage is piercing, slashing or bludgeoning - users choice.
Mastery level 3:To affect a grapple using a tendril of dark matter, the user spends 3 points of
chakra, infusing it into the darkness, which then shoots out at the intended target attempting
to wrap around him. You roll a CMB using your level plus your intelligence modifier, on a
success the tentacle grapples the target. The dark tentacle has a CMD equal to its CMB
+10.
Hachiman
Tags: Nintaijutsu, Genjutsu, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 Standard action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Maintained
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 6.
Effects: This mangekyo technique is feared far and wide for its incredible destructive
potential, in essence it allows its user to identify ‘any’ weak spot. This could be the weak
spot of a structure, a person or an organization.
Mechanically this turns the user into an incredibly dangerous combatant, increasing the
damage of any hit dealt by 3d8 points of damage, negates any concealment bonus, negates
cover bonus and ignores the miss chance when a character is between clones. Furthermore
the character's critical threat range becomes 15-20 and he gains a +8 bonus to confirm.
When the user of Hachiman successfully confirms a critical hit, he may apply one of the
following conditions unless the target succeeds at a fortitude save: Bleeding 2d6, Stunned
1d4, Blinded or Deafened. Alternatively the user can break the bones of his target instead of
applying a critical hit, this deals 2d4 points of Strength and Dexterity damage and makes
either a single arm or leg useless till all the ability damage has been healed.
When used in social situations, the user gains a bonus to dismantle and destroy any
organization, ideal or agreement equal to his level.
Mastery
At mastery level 2 the user incurs 1 point of Sharingan Blindness per round.
At mastery level 4 the user incurs Sharingan Blindness every three rounds.
Ebisu
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 11 Rank: S-Class LDC: 33
Time: 1 swift action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Instant, Special
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 8
Effects: Using this technique the user is able to peer upto eight years into the past or up to
eight seconds into the possible future, this grants the user an extreme advantage in most
situations where foreknowledge can make a difference.
In a combat encounter, this jutsu grants the user a +6 dodge bonus to armor class and
saves as well as a +4 bonus to hit and 50% concealment that cannot be negated in any way.
When used in this fashion this ability incurs a 2 points of Sharingan Blindness and lasts for
as long as the Mangekyo is active.
Ebisu can be activated immediately as a surprise round is engaged, this costs 4 points of
Chakra and Incurs a single point of Sharingan Blindness. When activated this way Ebisu
allows its user to act in the surprise round.
In a social situation the user can activate this ability right before having to make a social
check, this grants him a +8 bonus to any such roll in so far foreknowledge can be an
advantage. This incurs a single point of Sharingan Blindness.
When used to peer into the past, the user must choose a point anywhere from his current
time and up to eight years. The user may discover what happened within a given 100ft area,
he must be within the given area as he activates Ebisu and he experiences the events at a
live-speed. Meaning that observing a one hour long meeting, will take one hour. Observing
an event is an experience similar to being present at the event itself. Using Ebisu in this
fashion incurs 3 points of Sharingan Blindness.
Mastery
Mastery level 2 and 5 decreases the Sharingan Blindness penalties of Ebisu by 1
Susano’o
Tags: Ninjutsu, Gaze, Requires: Mangekyou Sharingan active
Lvl: 12 Rank: S-Class LDC: 34
Time: 1 Standard action, special
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Maintained 1 round
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 10 initially only, 2 Sharingan Blindness
Effect: A user who’s managed to awaken his Mangenkyo Sharingan in both eyes, will
eventually also awaken the Susanoo. The Susanoo first manifests as a Ribcage designed to
defend you. The Rib Cage provides a layer of protection immediately around you, any attack
against you, or area of effect that include you that deal damage, must first pierce the
Susanoo Ribcage. The Rib Cage has 10 points of Hardness and 120 hit point and an
Armour class of 25 (10+15 natural AC). You can spend 3 points of chakra as a swift action to
heal your Susanoo for 5d6 points of damage.
As an added bonus, you can manifest a single skeletal hand to assault your enemies.
Attacking with this hand is a standard action, the hand is a Huge sized appendage (+2
CMB/CMD), capable of delivering a slam attack dealing 2d8 points of damage. It has an
effective strength score of 24 and Dexterity score of 12. The Susanoo has a Base attack
bonus equal to the user’s level. Its CMD is equal to its base attack bonus, plus Strength and
Dexterity modifier.
Sustaining the Susanoo costs no additional chakra, rather it causes your eyes to deteriorate.
You gain 1 point of Sharingan Blindness for every 2 rounds Susanoo is activated.
Immediate action: You can activate the Susanoo Ribcage as an immediate action, this costs
the 10 initial chakra but doubles the Sharingan blindness attained during activation.
Susano’o cannot be mastered through training, like ordinary techniques. Only through use
can one master the Susano’o. The more it is used, for longer periods of time, the more it
develops and strengthens. Each round the user has a Susano’o in use, during combat, he
acrus 1 Mastery Point. Any additional bonuses on more complete forms, do not stack with
those of previous forms, only the greatest increase is applicable. You can upgrade a
Susanoo from one form to another, you simply have to pay the difference in activation cost.
Mastering Susano’o to level 5, does not count against the Shinobi’s Mastery Limit.
Mastery
Mastery 1: At this mastery level you can manifest the Complete Skeleton, your Susanoo can
now manifest as an entire upper-skeletal body, it now counts as a huge creature and it fills
the squares immediately adjacent to you. This increases your Susanoo’s Natural AC by +3,
its hardiness by +4, HP to 150. Moreover it gains an additional slam attack and its strength
increases to 28. While this form manifests around you, you’re unassailable from forces in the
physical realm, except for anything coming from under ground. However this increases the
activation cost to 15 and 3 Sharingan blindness. Achieving this Step, requires 6 Mastery
Points
Mastery 2: You only pay the maintenance Sharingan Blindness every 3rd round. Achieving
this Step, requires 12 Mastery Points
Mastery 3: At this mastery level your Susanoo can manifest as a complete Humanoid, this
increases its natural AC bonus by +5, its hardiness by +8, HP per level becomes 160, its
strength increases to 32 and it attains a weapon of your choice. The Susanoo is now
considered huge sized. It can wield a single Two-handed weapon or two one-handed.
Ranged weapons are a possibility too. Any weapon it manifests is considered Master
crafted. This increases the activation cost to 20 chakra and 4 Sharingan Blindness.
Achieving this Step, requires 18 Mastery Points
Mastery 4: At this level of mastery the Susanoo is Armored, It now functions as being
gargantuan in size. This grants it a +5 Armor bonus, increasing its Hardiness by +10 and HP
to 200. Additionally, your Susanoo gains a single special spirit weapon with a unique ability
agreed upon by you and your GM. This usually takes the form of a Legendary crafted
weapon, or a weapon with unique properties similar to some class abilities or Jutsu. You
only pay the maintenance of Sharingan Blindness every 4th round. Achieving this Step,
requires 24 Mastery Points
Mastery 5:. You have achieved the pinnacle of Susanoó, the Full-body armored Susano´o.
This Susano’o is considered Colossal in size, and while it’s active you’re suspended
somewhere on its head, keeping you at least 30 ft. above ground, thus removing one of the
Susanoo's greatest weaknesses. This form increases the Susano’o’s armor bonus by +7, its
hardness by +13 and HP to 260. The Susano’o can manifest any sort of weapon, while in
this form, allowing it to attack four times, with a weapon in each hand, any weapon
manifested is Legendary crafted. Its special spirit weapon can only be held in one of the
hands. As opposed to the other forms, you now move with the Susano’o, it has a movement
speed of 60 ft. and a fly speed of 120 ft. The Susano’o can hold up to 11 individuals inside,
but only if the user permits it. Achieving this Step, requires 30 Mastery Points
Effect: While the user's Susanoo is manifested in, at least, its skeletal form, the user can
project chakra into its hands to form Yasaka Magatama. A Yasaka Magatama consists of
three beads of energy of a colour similar to the user's Susanoo, however in a lighter shade.
The User can then direct the Susanoo to throw the beads as a ranged touch attack, anyone
directly hit takes 15d8 points of untyped damage as it consists of a pure release of chakra
energy. Anyone within 20ft of the primary target are also affected. Anyone affected can roll a
reflex save for half damage, the primary target takes a -4 penalty to this save.
The user can choose to reduce the spread of the Yasaka Magatama explosion, by
condensing the chakra of the beads. This does not reduce the cost of the technique, but
makes it a lot more forgiving in close quarters.
For 4 additional points of chakra the user can add an additional 5d8 points of damage, in the
form of another bead on the Yasaka Magatama string. For a total of 4 beads.
Mastery
At mastery Step 2 and 4 the user can create an additional bead through the empower option.
Implanted Eye
Bonus: You gain access to the Dōjutsu of the sort of eyes you’ve had implanted.
Weakness: As your body is not meant to contain the power of the Dōjutsu, you suffer af a
massive Chakra penalty trying to make use of it. Any chakra cost associated with the
Dōjutsu and its techniques are doubled, while the numeric bonuses are one lower. Some
implanted Dōjutsu can never be turned off, this means that an implanted Dōjutsu needs to
be covered when the wielder does not currently seek to use it. A covered Dōjutsu imposes a
-4 penalty to visual based perception checks. Byakugan, Kesshogan and Hanshagan do not
suffer this impairment.
Special: By training the user with an implanted Dōjutsu can alleviate the weakness and
progress as normal. The Games master decides what constitutes sufficient training and this
should never be as simple as spending Modules.
Jinchuriki
Basic Abilities
Below are a list of abilities shared between all Jinchuriki
Weaknesses
Ghastly Frenzy (Su): Whenever you’re reduced below 20% of your maximum hit points, the
tailed beast within you takes over. You enter the Tailed-beast Chakra cloak below. However
in this form you cannot control your rage and attack friend as well as foe, once you cannot
find any discernible enemies you’ll immediately attack any ally or innocent within reach,
prioritizing those that could pose a threat to you. While within this form, your beast cannot
reduce your chakra below 1 as it then begins drawing upon its own instead.
Once you reach HD 10, you enter the Bloody Chakra Cloak
Ruinous Depletion (Ex): If your Chakra Reserve ever reaches 0, the tailed-beast within you
is freed and enters a frenzy. You will subsequently pass away within the next ten minutes,
unless you somehow manage to seal the beast back inside yourself.
Benefits
Bestial Health (Ex): You recover from bodily harm at an incredible rate, you heal an
additional number of hit points equal to twice your constitution modifier after a night of rest.
Tailed-Beast Chakra Cloak (Su): This ability counts as a Chakra Cloak. While active, your
own Chakra mixes with that of the Tailed-beast inside of you, seeping out to wrap around
you like a protective cloak. This cloak proudly presents the amount of tails belonging to your
beast, it otherwise resembles a husk of boiling orange Chakra. You gain a +2 bonus to
Attack, Dodge bonus to AC, to all saves and a +4 bonus to damage including 8 points of
temporary Chakra. Each additional time a day, after the first, you enter the Tailed-Beast
Cloak, the temporary chakra gained is reduced by 4.
Bloody Chakra Cloak (Su): This ability counts as a Chakra Cloak. While active your blood
leaves your body, boiled to steam before it mixes with your Chakra Cloak. Occasionally you
will grow a bit of bone-structure, reminiscent of the beast within. In this cloak you gain a +4
bonus to attack, Dodge bonus to AC, to all saves and a +8 bonus to damage including 16
points of temporary Chakra. Everytime, after the first during a single day, you enter the
Bloody Chakra Cloak, the temporary chakra gained is reduced by 4.
Each Jinchuriki entry also has an individual explanation on their Complete Transformation
and individual techniques.
Frightful Presence (Ex): This special quality makes the Jinchuriki’s very presence unsettling
to foes. Activating this ability is a free action and it’s usually part of an attack or charge
action. Opponents within 100 ft radius that witness the Jinchuriki in action may become
frightened or shaken. This ability only affects opponents of HD15 or below. An affected
opponent must successfully roll a DC 26 (Cha based), or be shaken for 5d6 rounds. If an
opponent has 10 HD or fewer, they panicked instead. If an opponent successfully saves
against the Frightful Presence, they are immune for the next 24 hours. This is a Fear effect.
Crush (Ex): The Tailed beast can jump up to a distance of half its speed, any creature
inhabiting an area in which it lands takes 4d6+10 points of bludgeoning damage and must
roll a Reflex save DC (Individual) or be knocked prone.
Special Abilities:
Tailed Trait: Kekkei GenkaI: Magnet Release
Chakra Score: 40
Cursed Markings: Anyone striking Shukaku with an unarmed attack or direct physical
contact risks being cursed by his markings, this can only affect someone once every 1d4
rounds. A target must succeed at a will save DC 26 or be paralyzed for 1d4 rounds
afterwards as the Cursed markings creep upon their target to cover their body. Locking them
in place.
Whirling Tails (Ex): Once every round, roll once randomly between enemies within 30ft.
Anyone targeted takes 2d8+18 points of damage and must roll a fortitude save DC 33 (str)
or be knocked prone.
Techniques
Sand’s Embrace
Tags: Ninjutsu, Wind Release, Shukaku Hijutsu
Lvl: 4 Rank: B-Class LDC: 22
Time: 1 Standard action
Components: C, F
Range: Special, see text Duration: Maintained 5 rounds
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 3
Effect: Using the sand around him, the user is able to form Large arms or shapes of sand to
slam into his enemies. The bearer can use a mass of sand equal to his body weight to
deliver an attack within 30 feet. The user can deliver one slam attack equal to 1 + 1 for every
5 levels above 1st. Ergo an additional attack at user level 6, 11 and 16.
The attack deals damage as a slam attack large creature, 1d6, with his Intelligence score,
plus one-half his level (round down). The attack increases in size by one category every 5
levels. The sand also gains a +4 bonus to grapple checks, but does not benefit from a non-
permanent bonus to Intelligence or size.
At 10th level, the bearer can deal piercing and slashing damage instead. The sand's
embrace can be shaped at the bearer's will (being mindful of the embrace's size, at the GM's
discretion), but doing so does not increase or reduce the damage it can deal. Regardless of
its shape, the sand's embrace will always appear to obviously be a sand construct unless it
is somehow disguised. The bearer can still attack airborne creatures without being hindered
by the normal limitations of making sand levitate (see below).
Desert Suspension
Tags: Ninjutsu, Wind Release, Shukaku Hijutsu
Lvl: 4 Rank: B-Class LDC: 22
Time: 1 Standard Action
Components: C, F

mobility. He may float sand he controls for a time to grant himself levitation by being stood
on a platform of sand, while levitating the user gains a flight speed of 20ft per round, this
speed is halved when moving horizontally.
Mastery
Every step of mastery allows the user to extend this technique to a target beyond himself,
within short range. The targets must remain within the short range or their sand platform will
disappear after one round.
At mastery level 2 and 4 the speed increases by 10ft.
Sand Cocoon
Tags: Ninjutsu, Wind Release, Defensive Maneuver, Shukaku Hijutsu
Lvl: 4 Rank: B-Class LDC: 22

Effect: The user creates a cocoon of sand around himself or another creature that has a
hardness of 8 and 3 hit points per level. The cocoon can be attacked from within or broken
with a Break check (DC 35), and is immune to earth damage. When inside the cocoon, a
creature is protected from attacks and areas of effects which all must break through his
cocoon first.
Defensive Maneuver: Once per day as an instant action, the user may perform this
technique to aid himself or a creature within 30 feet to defend against an incoming attack;
doing so provokes an attack of opportunity.
To defend against the attack, the user must make a Perform check opposed to the
opponent's attack roll or technique's Save DC +10. If the attack is a confirmed critical, or a
natural 20, the user suffers a -4 penalty to his Ninjutsu check to shield himself or an ally
against the attack. If the sphere would have been destroyed by the attack, and the effect
defended against wasn't an area of effect, the user suffers half the damage dealt by the
technique, providing he is hit. Success creates the barrier normally.
This defensive maneuver must be declared before knowing the result of the attack.
This avoidance maneuver has a chakra cost of 6 and Defensive Maneuver does not count
as Avoiding an Attack and is usable a separate number of times a day.
Mastery
Every step of mastery after the first allows the technique to be used an additional time per
day, up to 5/day.

Lvl: 5 Rank: B-Class LDC: 23
Time: 1 Standard Action
Components: C, F
Range: Short Duration: Maintained 3 rounds
Saving Throw: Reflex Negates
Chakra Cost: 4
Effect: This technique using sand as its main focus traps a creature (or one of its limbs) in
sand. The sand moves at its own volition, moving swiftly to encase the enemy. The target
must first roll an initial reflex save, a success negates this technique, on a failure two of the
targets limbs are encased in sand. On the subsequent round, and every round thereafter,
the target must roll another reflex save. On a success nothing else happens, on a failure the
target is completely encased in sand and thus immobilized.
A creature with a hand or both hands encased in sand can only perform half or no hand
seals, both legs has their speed reduced to 0ft, a hand and a leg can only perform half seals
and has their movement halved. No matter which limbs are covered, the target has the
entangled condition.
An immobilized creature cannot perform techniques requiring Mobility, Half Seals or Hand
Seals, cannot move or perform any actions requiring freedom of movement. The creature
can attempt to break through the hold each round by spending a full-round action making a
breaking check DC 35.
A target completely encased, enjoys a flat damage reduction of 10/- and a +6 natural armor
bonus due to the sand covering him.
Material Focus: A mass of sand equal to the creature to entangle, or two size category

the massive damage dealt or be reduced to 0 and begin dying. If the target is disabled or
dying after having its limb or body crushed, it will suffer 2d6 points of Strength damage
(halved with a successful Fortitude save). If the user targeted a single limb with the

Desert Prison
Tags: Ninjutsu, Wind Release, Shukaku Hijutsu
Lvl: 11 Rank: A-Class LDC: 31
Time: 1 Standard action
Components: C, F
Range: Short Duration: Continuous 10 rounds
Saving Throw: Reflex Negates
Chakra Cost: 14
Effect: This technique allows the user to trap the target in a sphere of sand for the duration
of the technique. The sphere can be moved by the user at 30ft per round, as a move action.
It requires a mass of sand equal to the weight of the target.
If the subject fails its save, it is trapped in a compact sphere of sand. It can breathe and
move freely around the tight area, perform techniques or cast spells, however, techniques
with the mobility, hand seals or half seals or spells with somatic components have a 50%
chance of failure. The sphere can be attacked from within at a -4 penalty (defense 20), has a
hardness of 10 and 50 hit points, but can be broken by succeeding a Break check (DC 35).
Meanwhile, the sphere protects the target from all area of effects and attacks. The sphere is
immune to earth damage.
The user can perform the Sand Burial technique on the subject, while it is trapped in the
sphere without a perform check, as though the subject's entire body was caught. The user
can spend an additional 2 points of Chakra to increase the damage by 1 die, up to 12 dice of
damage (cost 20). Doing so dispels the Desert Prison afterwards.
Material Focus: A mass of sand equal to the subject's (including his mount, if any) weight.
Effect: Using a large quantity of sand, the user covers the enemy with several successive
layers of sand, before compressing it into the shape of a large pyramid which serves as the
target's prison upon completion. A target fully encased in the Desert Layered Imperial
Funeral Seal is completely in stasis, unable to move, act or think but they also no longer age
or require food, drink or air to survive. Poisons and diseases, and other afflictions, are
similarly suspended while the target is in stasis.
To activate this technique, the user must first succeed at a ranged touch attack as the target
is being showered with sand. If successful the target gains the grappled condition. The target
can attempt to free itself on the following round, rolling to free himself from the grapple
against a CMD of 15 + User level + Intelligence modifier. On the user's next round, if the
target fails to free himself, the user must roll his Fuinjutsu skill against a DC of the target's
level + 15. If successful, the target is sealed, as the user's Sealing tags adhere to the outside
of the Sand Mausoleum.
To free a target, would-be liberators must simply rip off the sealing tags. This requires them
to roll a User level check against a DC of 12 + the level of this technique's user. Once all four
tags have been removed, the sand retreats to release its target.
Special Abilities:

him, they take 2d8+15 points of piercing damage every round. Additionally, the extra
padding makes it impossible to successfully attack Isobu from the rear, thus he’s immune to
being flanked. Lastly, Isobu’s protective shell grants him immunity to precision based
damage and critical hits as well as Resistance Water 20, Earth and Fire 10.
Swallow Hole (Ex): If Isobu ever starts its turn with an opponent grappled, it can attempt a
new combat maneuver check, as if he attempted to pin his opponent. If he succeeds, he
swallows his prey. The Opponent must be of Medium size, or smaller, to be affected by this
ability. Anyone swallowed by Isobu immediately takes 2d8+15 points of bludgeoning
damage. Each round within Isobu, the creature is pitted against a swarm of small Isobu
clones, this deal 4d8+10 points of bludgeoning and piercing damage every round as they
tear into any intruders. The swallowed target can attempt to free itself, by cutting his way out.
(AC 22, HP 46) Isobu’s Carapace immediately heals after a target has cut itself out. This
immediate healing also means a target must deal the 46 points of damage in one round.

Jinchuriki, Any creature in the area when the ink is spewed must make a successful Reflex
save or fall. A creature can walk within or through the area of greasy ink at half normal
speed with a DC 10 Acrobatics check. Failure means it can't move that round (and must

not move on their turn do not need to make this check and are not considered flat-footed.
Alternatively the Jinchuriki can cover himself in ink, while covered in ink he gains a +10
circumstance bonus on Escape Artist checks and combat maneuver checks made to escape

General Bloodlines
Arach-nin Body
Thanks to advances in body modification, secret jutsu and science you’ve managed to adopt
the peculiarities of the Arachnid. Honing such modifications grants you a host of abilities.
Arachnid Form: The Arach-nin is born with additional appendages as well as a somewhat
unique physiology making them resistant to poison.
An Arach-nin has two additional pairs of arms, for a total of six arms. These additional arms
cannot be used to make additional attacks or perform more techniques in a round, but can
hold additional items and help secure your balance.
Moreover their unique internal make-up grants them a +3 bonus to saves against poison.
Sticky Hold: The Arach-nin’s palms and feet can stick to any plane surface, the Arach-nin
gains a climb speed equal to his land speed. However due to his additional appendages, he
can maneuver without any penalty, as such the Arach-nin is not flat-footed while climbing.
Webspinner: Spending 2 points of Chakra, the Arach-nin can launch webbing from his mouth
as a projectile at anyone within a 30ft range. If he succeeds at a ranged touch attack, his
target is entangled and anchored 0ft until they can free themselves of the webbing. The web
has a Hardiness of 4 and 2 HP per Arach-nin level, an escape artist DC 10 + your level can
also escape the webbing or with a strength check DC 22. As a secondary use the Arach-nin
use his webspinner ability to make a rope up to 60 ft, due to the sticky nature of this webbing
it automatically adheres to any ordinary surface touched by it’s tip.
Third Eye: The Arach-nin develops a third eye on his forehead, this eye increases his visual
prowess quite a bit and allows him to react faster than an ordinary human would. The Arach-
nin receives a +1 dodge bonus to Armor Class and a +2 bonus to Reflex saves, as well as a
+4 bonus to sight-based perception checks. These effects are obviously only in effect, while
the third eye is employed.

Escape artist roll to escape and the Strength check DC is 24.
Effect: You can shoot up to 3 shots of webspinner at three different targets within range, this
otherwise functions as the Webspinner ability.
Empower: For 2 additional points of Chakra, you may shoot an additional web shot. Up to a
number of total shots equal to your level.
Effect: You set up a large area with minute threads of spider webbing enhanced by your
chakra, to function as an early warning system as well as a minor trap. You’re immediately
alerted to anyone stepping within the area, as your webbing is placed high as well as low.
When you take note of someone within your area, you may spend a standard action to end
your Web area effect and instead pull the target closer to you. The target receives a reflex
save, on a success nothing happens, on a failure you pull the target up to 30 ft in your
direction, knocking them prone.
Twice per day, plus an additional time per day at the levels 12, 16 and 20, you can enhance
your Lightning Techniques with Black Lightning. Black lightning deals 50% more damage,
and ignores Lightning resistance.
Cell Transplantee
Acquired/Inherited Template: Acquired
Transplanted Cells: You gain the Bloodline feats held by the character whose cells you
assimilated into your own body. This includes any advanced chakra nature feats, and the
Chakra Nature it requires.
Chosen of Jashin
Acquired/Inherited Template: Acquired
Special Abilities
Immortality: The Chosen of Jashin is completely invulnerable to damage in the sense that it
can’t decrease his overall hitpoint total below 1. However they are just as susceptible to
perforation, dismemberment and decapitation except for the fact that it won't kill them.
An aggressor can choose to deal targeted damage to the limbs of the Chosen with a
slashing weapon, to dismember the limb. Dealing more than 30 points of slashing damage
severs the limb, imposing appropriate penalties. To decapitate the Chosen requires 50
points of Slashing damage, as well as a -4 penalty to hit.
Immunities: The Chosen of Jashin are immune to Poison, Disease and ability damage.
The character is afflicted with the Cursed Seal, which may come as either a blessing or a
curse. The seal itself releases a toxin in the creature's brain that serves to grant potent
short-term benefits but on a long-term basis also irreparably limits the creature's potential.
There are two levels of the cursed seal, simply named "level 1" and "level 2". To attain the
level 2 cursed seal, external application of a cursed seal of great power is not sufficient. A
specific shinobi drug must be ingested, which is said to put the creature in a short coma
while the body is altered.
Curse Seal Level 1 (Su): When this ability is manifested, the creature gains a +1 bonus to
Defense, Reflex saves, attack and weapon damage rolls, a +2 bonus to opposed disarm,
trip, grapple, bullrush or overrun checks and Athletics checks.
In addition, the creature gains 6 temporary Nature chakra, and his carrying capacity by one-
half (round down). Every subsequent use within a 24 hours period reduces the amount of
Nature chakra gained at any level by 2, minimum 0. The temporary chakra fades
immediately after the cursed seal is deactivated.
This ability can be manifested as a Standard action or deactivated as a swift action. For an
unwilling creature, it is harder to control (see Control Cursed Seal skill). The cursed seal
recedes when the creature falls unconscious.
Each round spent under the influence of the level 1 cursed seal gives the creature 1 CSP
(see Consequences of Overuse below).
The level 1 or 2 cursed seal can be used a number of times every 24 hours equal to the
creature's Constitution modifier (To a minimum of 1). If he activates it once after this limit is
reached, he becomes fatigued after it’s activation. If he activates it twice after his limit he
becomes exhausted. Should he activate it a third time after this limit, he becomes exhausted
and takes 1d4 points of Constitution Damage, this happens every time he activates
henceforth.
Cursed Seal Level 2 (Sp): When manifested, this ability grants the creature a +2 bonus to
Defense, Reflex saves, attack and weapon damage rolls, a +4 bonus to opposed disarm,
trip, grapple, bullrush or overrun checks and Athletics checks. He gains 12 temporary Nature
chakra and his carrying capacity doubles. Every subsequent use within a 24 hours period
reduces the amount of Nature chakra gained by any level by 3 minimum 0. The temporary
chakra fades immediately after the cursed seal is deactivated.
In addition, while the level 2 cursed seal is active, the creature may manifest an innate
natural weapon as a swift action, and dismiss it as a swift action. The natural weapon
granted by the seal is chosen upon application: bite, claw, gore, slap or talon.
- A bite attack manifests as a wicked fang, and deals 1d6 points of piercing damage for a
Medium-size creature.
- A claw attack manifests itself as wicked claws and deals 1d4 points of slashing damage for
a Medium-size creature.
- A gore attack manifests itself as a pair of horns protruding from the creature's head, and
deals 1d6 points of piercing damage for a Medium-size creature.
- A tail slap manifests itself as a long, scaly tail and deals 1d4 points of bludgeoning damage
for a Medium-size creature.
- A talon attack manifests itself as a pair of wings that allow the creature to Fly at a speed of
half his land speed, with a Clumsy maneuverability, and deal 1d3 points of slashing damage
for a Medium-size creature.
If severed, natural weapons will regrow after 1 day. Until fully regrown, they cannot be
manifested.
Like the level 1 cursed seal, manifesting or deactivating this ability is difficult for an unwilling
creature (see Cursed Seal Level 1). Each round spent under the influence of the level 2
cursed seal grants 2 CSP.
The level 1 or 2 cursed seal can be used a number of times every 24 hours equal to the
creature's Constitution modifier. Each time after that deals 2 points of temporary Constitution
damage upon activation, and puts the creature into a fatigued condition when deactivated (or
exhausted if already fatigued).
Willing or Unwilling
An unwilling creature instinctively resists the cursed seal and though it can exert some
measure of control upon it, it must constantly struggle with it. A willing creature, however,
accepts the cursed seal and embraces its power. It has complete freedom over the process
of activating or deactivating the cursed seal. The origin of the seal gains some measure of
control over the carrier of the seal. As a gaze attack, the creature who applied the Cursed
Seal upon the creature (using the Juuin Jutsu technique) may convey a single Suggestion
(as per the spell) if the creature is willing, or cause the creature to become sickened (as per
condition) for 1 minute. The gaze attack has a range of 30 feet and can be resisted with a
Will save (DC 10 + ½ origin's HD + Cha modifier). The gaze attack can only be used once
per day, even if it is resisted.
If the creature is unwilling, the origin may use the gaze attack instead to force the activation
of the cursed seal. The origin decides which level to activate, if the creature has both.
Consequences of Overuse
The cursed seal is a double edged sword, a very sharp one. Using the cursed seal has few
long term consequences, but abusing it can do terrible damage to the cursed creature's
body.
Each round spent under the curse increases the character's Cursed Seal Pool ("CSP") by 1
or 2, depending on the seal level. A full day (24 hours) later, starting from the moment the
cursed seal was used, the creature adds all CSP acquired and compares the value on the
table and suffers the appropriate drawbacks for that amount of CSP (choose the highest
value only).
After suffering the drawbacks, the amount of CSP a creature has is halved, and heals at a
rate of 1 point per level per evening of rest, doubled by complete bed rest (but not bed rest).
If the creature has a CSP pool higher than 0 but did not use the cursed seal within a 1 day
period (ie, the creature is currently healing), it does not suffer daily drawbacks until it uses
the seal again. A creature with the True Origin feat does not gain chakra seal pool.
CSP Drawback
3 or less -
25-31 Afflicted by Seal Disease, Fortitude save DC 25 or take 2d6 Con damage
32-37 Afflicted by Seal Disease, Fortitude save DC 27 or take 2d6 Con damage
38-43 Afflicted by Seal Disease, Fortitude save DC 29 or take 2d6 Con damage
43-49 Afflicted by Seal Disease ,Fortitude save DC 31 or take 2d6 Con damage
50 or more Afflicted by Cursed Disease, Fortitude save DC 33 or take 2d6 Con damage
Seal Disease: The disease's incubation period is 1d4 days. Its initial damage is 1 Str, 1 Dex,
and secondary damage is 1d4 Str, 1d4 Dex. The Fortitude save DC against primary and
secondary damage is 16, and must be made each day after secondary damage is taken.
This disease can only be removed using a Medical technique from a character of equal or
higher level than the diseased creature (mastery counts). Ability damage from the disease
can still be healed normally.
Cursed Disease: The disease's incubation period is 1d4 days. Its initial damage is 1d3 Str,
1d3 Dex, and secondary damage is 2d4 Str, 2d4 Dex. The Fortitude save DC against
primary and secondary damage is 19, and must be made each day after secondary damage
is taken. This disease can only be removed using a Medical technique from a character of 3
or more level higher than the diseased creature (mastery counts). Ability damage from the
disease can still be healed normally.
This skill is used by the unwilling recipient of the cursed seal, or by a willing recipient to
enhance his use of the cursed seal. Any character possessing the cursed seal and that is
aware of the condition can learn Control Cursed Seal as a class skill. The willing seal bearer
does not need this skill, because it has full control over the seal, but can still make use of it.
The cursed creature makes a check to resist the activation of the cursed seal. This check is
made when struck in combat, or at the beginning of battle or when the creature is feeling
particularly strong emotions. The difficulty varies depending on the situation.
Start of an Encounter 15
Struck in Combat 25
Powerful Emotions 15
On a failed check at the start of an encounter, when feeling powerful emotions or from the
origin's gaze attack, the character is forced to activate the cursed seal at the first opportunity
as a Standard action. When injured in combat, the cursed character must make a check
every time it accumulates enough damage to reduce its hit points by one-quarter and again
every quarter lost. If the character has the level 2 cursed seal ability and the level 1 seal is
already active, a second failed check activates the level 2 seal.
Retry: Check to resist an involuntary transformation every time a triggering effect occurs.
Level 1 15
Level 2 20
Retry: The character can attempt to force the cursed seal to activate as often as he likes.
Each attempt is a Standard action.
Check (Deactivate Cursed Seal)
The cursed character makes a check to attempt to deactivate the cursed seal.
Lv 1 Voluntary 10
Lv 2 Voluntary 15
Lv 1 Involuntary 15
Lv 2 Involuntary 20
Retry: The character can retry to deactivate a voluntary transformation an unlimited amount
of times, each try is a Standard action. An involuntary transformation deactivates on its own
as the encounter ends.
Only a willing recipient can use this skill to facilitate the transformation and deactivation
process.
Activate Lv 1 25
Activate Lv 2 30
Deactivate Lv 1 20
Deactivate Lv 25
Only a willing recipient can use this skill to partially manifest his cursed seal at level 2. Each
time the natural weapon is manifested, the willing recipient gains 1 CSP. The manifestation
lasts 10 minutes, until dismissed via this skill, or until the cursed seal level 2 is activated and
deactivated.
Bite or gore 25
Claw or Slap 20
Talon (Wings) 35
Dismiss Weapon 10
Special: A character can't Take 10 or Take 20 when using this skill. A character with 5 or
more ranks in this skill gains a +2 bonus to Will save to resist the origin's gaze attack.
A character with 5 or more ranks in this skill gains a +2 bonus to Will save to cancel the
frenzy if he runs out of enemies.
Cursed Toughness
The Dead bone pulse is the kekkei Genkai of the now extinct Kaguya clan. It allows
its user great control over their Osteoblasts and Osteoclasts, this in turn allows them
to turn their bones harder than steel and even force them to grow out of their bodies
to be used as weapons.
Bone Craft: With this ability the user can create weapons and armour out of their
very bones. Initially, the crafts created are crude and often still connected to the
user's body, such as claws or spikes, but as their abilities grow, so too does the
utility of their craft. The bonecrafter may have up to three persistent bone weapons,
items, or armors at any given time. This limit may be increased to four via the [Insert
Feat Here] feat. Additionally, by spending 1 Standard action and 5 points of Chakra,
the user can remove any penalty associated with broken bones as the user can
immediately knit them back together.
Effect: The most basic of the Dead Bone Pulse technique allows the user to form basic
weaponry from his skeleton, these come in many shapes and forms but generally fall within
one of the two categories.
Bone Claws: The most basic of the Bone crafts, the user is able to cause a set of
crude claws to manifest from either the tip of his fingers or his forearms. These cost
2 points of chakra to craft. The bone claws are natural weapons that have the
following statistics: 1d4 (19-20, x2) Slashing and Piercing.
Bone Knife: The user produces a small blade, this blade could extend from the palm
of his hand as a punching knife or his elbow. Opposed to spikes though, he could
create actual weapons that are still useful as they leave his body. The user can
manifest any Light One-handed Bladed Melee weapon using this technique, these
cost 4 to produce.
Mastery
At Mastery Step Two and Four the user produces items of superior value. Step two
being Expertly crafted and Step four being Master Crafted.
Effect: The user can now manifest a proper weapon, this can take the shape of any
light or one-handed melee weapon that could feasibly be crafted from super-
hardened bone. The user still needs to be proficient with the weapon. Manifesting
such a weapon costs 6 points of Chakra and takes a Move action.
Mastery
At Mastery Step two the user can craft Two-handed Bone Weapons: This functions
like above, but the user can now also produce non-reach two-handed weapons. This
increases the cost to 10 chakra and leaves the user sickened for a round.
At Mastery Step four the user can craft Bone Reach Weapons: This functions like
Mastery step two, but the user can now manifest Reach weapons.
Mastery
At Mastery Step two the user can spend an additional 2 points of chakra, to manifest
an armor with the following statistics: +6 armor bonus, with a maximum dexterity
bonus of 5 and an armor check penalty of -4.
At Mastery Step three the user can spend an additional 2 points of chakra, to
manifest Bone spikes on the armor. These function like ordinary armor spikes.
At Mastery Step four the user can spend an additional 4 points of chakra, to manifest
a Bone Armor with the following statistics: +8 armor bonus, with a maximum dexterity
bonus of 4 and an armor check penalty of -6.
Effect: The Bone crafter can now forcefully harden the bones inside his body, while
still managing to allow himself to move properly, this grants the user a damage
reduction of 10 against Bludgeoning damage and 5 against Slashing and Piercing
damage. Additionally, while this technique is in effect there’s a 25% chance
whenever the user is subjected to a critical hit or a sneak attack that the additional
damage of the attack is negated.
As an immediate action, reacting to a physical attack, the user can boost his damage
reduction against Bludgeoning, Slashing and Piercing each by 10 points and
increase his chance to negate Sneak attacks and critical hits by 25%, to a maximum
of 100%. This boost lasts 1 round. This costs 3 chakra if the base technique is
already in effect, 7 if it isn’t. If used in this way, the duration is reset.
Mastery
Each Step of Mastery achieved increases the Damage Reduction by +1 against the
three types of physical damage.
At Mastery Step two and four, increase the chance to negate Sneak attacks and
Critical hits by +25%, to a maximum of 75% at mastery step four.
Effect:
Effect: The user can craft a variety of minor items that could feasibly be crafted from
bone, such as flutes, cutlery, grappling hooks and more. Even items that need
assembly like tables, chairs and the like. Doing so costs anywhere between 1 point
of chakra to 10, GM’s discretion and can be done in a time span of anywhere
between 1 move action to several minutes or even an hour. Items produced with this
technique can never be of superior quality, nor can it produce any sort of weapon or
other combat implement.
Effect: The caster of this jutsu is able to launch the tip of his fingers at an incredible
speed, functioning as tiny projectiles. These bullets deal 1d4+1 points of piercing
damage per bone, the finger bones are so fast they cannot be dodged by ordinary
means, and thus require no to-hit roll. The caster can shoot 5 finger bones off at
once.
Mastery: Each level of mastery allows the caster to shoot another finger bone.
Life’s Blood
Every member of the Nezumi clan consciously increases their bodies production of blood,
this means that any blood that spills during battle or is sacrificed through techniques is
immediately replaced. As such, members of the Nezumi clan take no damage from bleeding
nor do they take constitution damage from blood drain abilities or similar and as such they
never run the risk of bleeding out. This technique only works, while they have at least 1
Chakra Point in their Chakra Reserve.
Blood Vector
The Nezumi clan was always famous for their ability to subtly take out a target, without them
ever noticing. Even thorough searches of the Nezumi assassins never revealed any
poisonous agent. This stems from the clan's ability to transmute the effects of their blood to
produce bloodborne diseases and poisons, for them to use at their leisure.
A Nezumi can manipulate his own blood to create deadly poisons known as Nezumitoxins.
She can use this ability a number of times each day equal to her level + her constitution
modifier. A Nezumitoxin functions only when used by the Nezumi and becomes inert if not
used within 1 minute. Creating a Nezumitoxin is a standard action, and it can be applied to a
weapon as a move action.
At 1st level, a Nezumi must choose whether her Nezumitoxin deals Strength or Dexterity
damage. At 3rd level and every 2 character levels thereafter, she can enhance her
Nezumitoxin in one of the following ways. She can’t select the same improvement twice in a
row.
Select one additional form of ability damage: Charisma, Dexterity, Intelligence, Strength, or
Wisdom.
Grant an onset time of 1 round, or increase an existing onset time by 2 rounds (maximum 11
rounds).
Increase the number of consecutive saves required to cure the poison by 1 (maximum 3).
Increase the frequency by 2 rounds (maximum 10 rounds).
If a Nezumi can deal different kinds of ability damage, she selects which ability to affect each
time she creates a dose of Nezumitoxin, and can willingly reduce enhanced aspects of her
Nezumitoxin, such as the save DC or onset time. A dose of Nezumitoxin can cause only one
secondary effect. The DC of Nezumitoxin is equal to 10 + character level + constitution
modifier.
Instead of producing a Nezumitoxin, the user can also choose to produce a disease that
takes effect once the target has touched the blood so infected. The Nezumi can choose to
afflict her own blood with Blinding Sickness, Bubonic Plague, Cackle Fever, Filth Fever,
Leprosy, Mindfire, Red ache, or Slimy Doom. They take effect immediately, ignoring onset
timers. The DC to resist these diseases is equal to resisting Nezumitoxins.
Acquired: Innate
Porous Body (Ex): The Hyuga are able to expel Chakra from any point of their body, giving
them access to specific techniques that require this ability.
Natural Sage
This template actually represents two distinct bloodlines. One simply allows a rare few of its
members to Naturally absorb and store Nature Chakra, though to a much greater degree
than most sages.
While the far more populated bloodline also allows its members to passively absorb Nature
Chakra, their physique makes it so that their stores of Nature Chakra can mutate their
bodies for added combat prowess and eventually, through mastery, they may achieve Sage
mode.
Natural Absorption
The carriers of this particular bloodline possess the capacity to passively draw in natural
energy from the world around themselves and mix it with their Chakra. Any member of this
Bloodline possesses a separate Nature Chakra pool that equates to 1/5th of their maximum
Chakra pool. This Chakra pool refreshes to full at every rest, including short rest, the
character takes. Otherwise this function is like Nature chakra and is affected by feats and
abilities that manipulate it. Unlike ordinary characters, those without this bloodline, there is
no inherent risk for the Natural sage to hold Nature chakra.
Sage Transformation
Tags: Ninjutsu, Requires: Natural Sage Transformation feat
Lvl: 6 Rank: A-Class LDC: 26
Time: 1 Move action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Special, see text
Saving Throw: Will negates, see Drawback
Chakra Cost: 0
Effect: The carriers of this bloodline are capable of turning their own nature chakra reserves
into a massive physical boost. This boost requires that the wielder lets the energy seep into
his body and results in direct physical transformation.
The user's body visibly mutates, growing chitinous plating, his skin and eye colours changing
and much worse. This mutation grants the user’s natural armor bonus increase by +3 and
the user gains a +6 increase to Strength, +2 Hit points per hit dice, and a +4 bonus to
Fortitude and Reflex saves. The user can choose to manifest a partial transformation, this
doubles the time in between upkeep costs, meaning he pays 1 Nature Chakra every 6
rounds instead but all the bonuses are halved. All derived techniques follow a similar pattern
of mutation.
The Sage Transformation costs 1 Nature Chakra per 3 rounds it’s active.
Drawback: Learning this technique exposes the Natural Sage to the chaotic energies of
nature en masse. As this nigh uncontrollable energy swirls inside the user he runs the risk of
going Berserk, whenever he’s subject to real danger.
Whenever the user’s Hit points dip below half (Once per encounter), he is subject to a critical
hit, or loses control of his body such as by being stunned, Paralyzed or through any mind-
affecting or compulsion effects, he must roll a Will save with a difficulty equal to this
technique. If he fails he enters Berserk, activating this technique, but at half cost, and
immediately sets out to kill every living thing within sight range, utilizing every option at the
user’s disposal. This Berserk lasts until there’s no living thing within sight.
Friends, allies and lovers of the User can attempt to calm him down with a Diplomacy check
with a difficulty equal to the DC of this technique +5. On a success, the user can attempt a
will save to end the effect early. Attempting this Diplomacy check, is a standard action.
The user can also spend a Legend point to end the Berserk early, though only after 3 rounds
of Berserk have elapsed.
Mastery
At Mastery 5, the user learns Sage Mode, though it can only be activated when Sage
Transformation is also currently activated. The user can choose to Activate both Techniques,
with a single Move action.
Derived Techniques
Special: These techniques are also known as Mutations. Mutations can only be activated
while the user is in Sage Transformation, or Partially transformed. Each mutation equates to
a body part, a user can only have a single mutation per body part active. Though some body
parts, such as arms or legs do come in duplicates and thus can have one mutation per arm
or leg. During a Partial transformation, only one arm and one leg can be mutated.
Effect: While under the effect of the Physical Mutation of the Sage Transformation
technique, the user can change the shape of his arm to produce a sharp protution similar to
that of an axe. This axe deals 2d6 points of damage, deals 3 times damage on a critical hit
and gains strength and a half on damage rolls.
Jet Booster
Tags: Ninjutsu, Derived: Sage Transformation
Lvl: 6 Rank: B-Class LDC: 24
Time: 1 swift action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Special, see text
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 0
Effect: While under the effect of the Physical Mutation of the Sage Transformation
technique, the user can manifest jets from his back and legs which allows him to increase
his speed and jumping capability.
While active the user’s movement speed increases by 20 ft, additionally the user can
traverse through the air in any direction as long as he ends his movement on a square that
supports his weight.
Lastly, the user gains the Powerful Charge ability, increasing the damage of any charge by
+2d6.
This is a Torso mutation and cannot be manifested while another torso mutation is active.
Piston Fist
Tags: Taijutsu, Derived: Sage Transformation
Lvl: 5 Rank: C-Class LDC: 21
Time: 1 Swift action
Components: C
Range: Personal Duration: Special, see text
Saving Throw: None
Chakra Cost: 0
Effect: While under the effect of the Physical Mutation of the Sage Transformation
technique, the user can manifest a massive fist supported by a piston. This grants the user a
slam attack that deals 2d8 points of damage, double damage on a critical hit and deals
double the user's strength modifier as added damage.
On a successful hit, the target must make a fortitude save or be knocked prone by the sheer
force of the blow.
At 4th level, and every 4th level thereafter, the user can absorb an additional d4 on touch.
Equipment
Currency
There are nearly as many forms of currency in the world as there are countries. Most
currencies are backed by either silver or gold, but some are backed by the value of their
countries' promise of their value.
Selling Equipment
There are a number of places where you can sell equipment, but the most common are
pawn shops, flea markets and black markets. Since any equipment sold by PCs comes
without the guarantees and reputation of major merchants and producers (and may be
broken, cursed, defective, or stolen), in general PCs can sell equipment for a fraction of the
purchase Price.
To sell something, a character first needs to determine its sale value. Assuming the object is
undamaged and in working condition, the sale value is equal to the object’s purchase DC (as
if purchased new) minus 3. Selling an object can provide an increase to a character’s
Wealth bonus. The increase is the same amount as the Wealth bonus loss the character
would experience if the character purchased an object with a purchase DC equal to the sale
value. Regardless of the character’s current Wealth bonus, he or she gains a Wealth bonus
increase of 1 whenever the character sells an object with a sale value of 15 or higher. If a
character sells an object with a sale value less than or equal to his or her current
Wealth bonus, and that sale value is 14 or lower, the character gains nothing.
A character cannot legally sell restricted objects unless the character is licensed to own
them. A character also cannot legally sell objects that have been reported as stolen. Selling
objects illegally usually requires that the character have contacts in the black market, and
reduces the sale value by an additional 3. Selling takes a number of hours equal
to the normal purchase DC of the Item.
Item Level
All armor, equipment, and weapons (whether Chakra, technological, or hybrid) are assigned
an item level. While characters can utilize items of any level, Game Masters should keep in
mind that allowing characters access to items far above their current level may imbalance
the game.
An object’s item level represents the scarcity and value of the technology and/or chakra
employed in its construction. Higher level items generally incorporate more advanced
technology or Chakra control. An object’s item level also determines its hardness and Hit
Points and is an indicator of the level at which a character should typically expect to both
have access to the item and be able to craft it. Item level also helps convey the fact that
buying equipment is more involved than just placing an order. Even finding the items you
desire isn’t always easy, and those who have access to things such as powerful weapons
and armour tends to deal only with people they trust.
Rather than meticulously track every arms dealer, contact, and licence a character has
access to, the game assumes that in typical city you can find and purchase anything with an
item level no greater than your character level + 1, and at major and capital cities
items up to your character level + 2. The GM can restrict access to some items (even those
of an appropriate level) or make items of a higher level available for purchase
(possibly at a greatly increased price or in return for a favor done for the seller).
Purchasing Equipment
Shinobi Legends uses Wealth checks to determine what a character can afford to purchase
as well as the kinds of equipment a character may have access to. Her Wealth bonus
indicates her buying power. Each object has a purchase DC that indicates the
difficulty in the Wealth check to attempt to purchase the item in question.
Wealth is fluid. It can increase over time. It also decreases as you make more purchases.
If you succeed on a Wealth check, you acquire the item you’re attempting to purchase.
Failure means that you simply cannot afford it. It is out of your grasp for the time being. Your
credit check failed or you don’t have enough assets. If your current Wealth bonus is equal to
or greater than the purchase DC, then you can automagically purchase the item.
This means that you can easily afford the item you intend to purchase.
If you successfully purchase an item or service with a purchase DC higher than your current
Wealth bonus, then your Wealth bonus decreases. How much a character’s Wealth is
decreased depends on the expense of the item. If the purchase DC is 10 points or less
above the character’s Wealth bonus, then Wealth bonus will decrease by 1. If the purchase
DC is between 11 and 15 points higher than her Wealth bonus, the character will
lose 1d6 points from her Wealth bonus. If a character purchases an item that has a purchase
DC of 16 points or higher than her Wealth bonus, she loses 2d6 points from her Wealth
bonus.
Starting Wealth
A 1st level character’s wealth bonus is +0 plus:
• Wealth bonus provided by her occupation, see below.
• Any feat bonuses, such as from "Windfall".
• 2d4 die roll.
Wealth Bonus of +0
While your Wealth bonus can never decrease below +0, if it sits at +0 then you lack the
buying power to make any high end purchases what-so-ever. You cannot purchase any item
that has a purchase DC of higher than 10.
Amassing Wealth
While making expensive purchases can decrease your character’s wealth bonus, there
are methods of increasing your Wealth bonus as well. Every new level, you’ll make a Flat
d20 check. The DC of this check is equal to your current Wealth bonus. Success
indicates that your character’s Wealth bonus increases by +1. For every 5 points by which
you exceed the DC, your bonus increases by an additional +1.
Wealth Awards
Adventuring often involves acquiring treasure in the form of jewels and cold hard currency. In
these cases, the gamemaster should translate these awards into Wealth bonuses. A Wealth
award represents an increase in a character’s buying power instead of a perpetual
source of income. A treasure chest might give the character a +4 wealth bonus, for example.
If a party discovers the cash or treasure, then they may distribute the Wealth bonus as
evenly as possible or in any way the group see’s fit.
Shinobi Occupation
Most Shinobi are engaged with their villages, employed by the country which they serve.
Many missions will see a Shinobi enjoying Wealth awards, but most also include a set
payment. Below you’ll see the occupation bonuses to wealth, your character might enjoy.

Heavy Armour
Leather Jacket: This armour is represented by a heavy leather biker’s jacket. A number of
other impromptu armors, such as a football pads and a baseball catcher’s pads, offer similar
protection and game statistics.
Undercover shirt: Designed for deep undercover work in which it’s critical that the wearer not
appear to be armed or armoured, this garment consists of a T-shirt with a band of light
protective material sewn in around the lower torso.
Pouched Vest: Similar to the traditional Shinobi Light Vest, the Pouched Vest sacrifices
some protection, in favour for pouches in which the wearer can hold additional items. The
vest has 4 pouches, each the size and function of a belt pouch.
Light Vest: This is the traditional combat vest, it has maximised protective capabilities
without sacrificing too much mobility.
Medium Armour
Medium Armour offers much better protection for a Shinobi, but it incurs a 20% Technique
failure chance with hand seals, unless the Shinobi in question has the proper training.
Medium Vest: A heavier version of the standard Shinobi Light Vest, the Medium vest
sacrifices more mobility, in favour of protection.
Chainmail: Often used by criminals, non-shinobi fighters and trainee samurai.
Heavy Armour
Heavy Armour is very rarely used by Shinobi, but many in the criminal element makes good
use of it as well as the Samurai of various nations. Heavy Armour incurs a 35% Technique
failure, if techniques require hand seals.
Heavy Vest: A much heavier version of the Standard Shinobi Light Vest, the Heavy vest
severely hampers mobility and speed in favour of much increased protective capabilities.
O-Yoroi: The traditional armour of the Samurai, the O-Yoroi offers a great deal of protection
but since the Samurai aren’t trained to make use of Hand Seals, their special training allows
them to make good use of the added protection and not suffer too greatly, from the reduced
mobility.

Archaic Weapons
Ranged
Large Shuriken This Shuriken is incredibly large, you add 1½ times your strength modifier to
damage. This Shuriken is so large that it cannot be used in conjunction with feats like Rapid
shot, or with similar effects.
Kusarigama
This weapon has a single kama or sickle held in the off hand, attached by 10 feet of fine
chain to a weighted metal ball. The sickle can be used to make trip attacks, jabs, and blocks,
while the ball is whipped around at high speeds and then smashed into the opponent, or
used to tangle an opponent’s sword or spear, allowing the wielder to then attack with the
sickle. (Tags: Double, Grapples, Flurry, Reach, Trip)

Quality Craftsmanship
Not all weapons and armour are crafted equally, some craftsmen pride themselves on their
work and make the extra effort. Some have studied ancient techniques, family secrets, or the
like to enhance their craft. Whatever the case, some weapons and armour are made to be
exceptionally crafted, which make them much stronger and more usable. Such supreme
items are of course a great deal more expensive.
All Weapons and Armour come in four levels of quality; Ordinary, Expert, Master, and
Legendary. The weapons and armour’s above are all of Ordinary Quality, if a character
wishes to acquire weapons or armour of greater Quality, they will have to search long and
hard for someone with the ability to craft them and pay an extraordinary amount of additional
currency.

Chakra Enhancements
For the cost of 1 Chakra, as a free action, a Chakra blade deals 1d6 points of extra damage
for three rounds. This damage is of a type equal to one of its users' nature transformations.
The swords gain their name from the fact that they channel lightning natured chakra,
increasing its vibrating frequency and hence increasing its piercing and cutting power to an
extent greater than most Wind Release techniques. A Supervibrato Lightning Release sword
functions as a Mastercrafted Tanto Chakra Blade, that ignores 10 points of hardness and
doubles its critical threat range (as if by Improved Critical feat) while Lightning chakra is
channeled through it.
Chakra Artifacts
Kusanagi Sword
The sword of Kusanagi is a Legendary crafted Katana with the unique ability to be able to
cut almost anything, this ability is represented by the swords ability to ignore 10 points of
Hardness. The sword itself is indestructible.
Bashōsen
This large feathered fan is said to once have belonged to an ancient Shinobi of legend, this
fan was part of his treasured tools and as said carries with it some legend. Bashōsen is
capable of expelling large amounts of elemental energy through its use of elemental Coils.
At the cost of 20 Chakra the Fan releases a burst of elemental force in a 30 ft cone dealing
20d10 points of elemental damage. A Reflex DC 30 halves this damage.
This counts as a level 18 Ninjutsu of the given Chakra nature.
The attacks are named Bashōsen: Coil of <Elements name>
Bashōsen can only be used to conjure the elements of the basic nature transformations.
Gunbai
This massive non-folding fan is carved from the wood of a spirit tree, the unique
circumstances related to the crafting of Gunbai has granted incredible capabilities. First the
Gunbai can be wielded one-handed as a Legendary crafted club, dealing 4d10 points of
Bludgeoning damage with a +3 enchant. Second, the user can wave the fan, as a standard
action, to conjure a massive gust of wind in a 60 ft cone. Every enemy within the cone takes
10d6 points of damage and must roll a fortitude save DC 30 or be pushed to the max
distance of the fans cone and knocked prone, if you collide with an object or person during
this push you both suffer 1d6 points of damage per 10 ft left of your travel distance. Lastly
the Gunbai can perform the famed Uchiha Return, this can be done once per encounter as a
reaction to an enemy's incoming ninjutsu. The Ninjutsu is immediately reflected from the
target onto the user himself, utilizing all variables as it had previously. Uchiha return has to
be declared before the result of attack rolls or saves are revealed.
The 7 Swords
All of the 7 swords are Master crafted.
Store chakra: The wielder of Hiramekarei can store chakra within the blade itself. The blade
can hold up to the wielders character level times 3 points of Chakra, Chakra stored within
does not decay but it does immediately evaporate if a new wielder attempts to store chakra
within. Storing Chakra takes a Standard action and the user can pump 1 point of chakra into
the blade per character level with this Standard action.
Chakra Cloak (At-Will, swift action): The wielder has the power to Change the properties of
Hiramekarei by forming a shroud of solid chakra, made from the chakra stored within, over
the weapon to take the shape of another weapon. When enveloped by the Chakra Cloak,
Hiramekarei can change its damage type to any of the following: Slashing, Piercing or
Bludgeoning. Furthermore, the sword gains one of the following modifications. The chakra
cloak lasts for 1 round. It costs two points of chakra stored, to activate this ability.
Armor Piercer(At-Will, attack action): 2 pieces set bonus. Make an attack with Helmsplitter
and add a circumstance bonus to the attack roll equal to Shieldcrusher's enhancement
bonus to Crush the target's defense. Apply your Strength modifier to Helmsplitter
damage 1.5 times as though wielding in two-handed. The attack ignores all armor, shield,
and natural armor bonus to Defense, but other modifiers apply normally. The attack
overcomes all damage reduction and hardness, and deals triple damage to unattended
objects and structures. The target is shaken for 1 round on a successful hit.
Lethal Blade(At-Will, swift action): Use when scoring a critical hit with either Helmsplitter or
Shieldcrusher. Deal +2d8 extra damage.
United mastery: The wielder, when fighting with Helmsplitter and Shieldcrusher
simultaneously, can take the effects of certain feats and abilities that would apply to
Helmsplitter and apply them to Shieldcrusher as well. These effects are any of the following
feats or abilities: Greater Weapon Focus, Greater Weapon Specialization, Improved Critical,
Power Critical, Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization. These feats and abilities do not
stack with one another, but rather overlap.
Set: This item is part of a set of two: Kabutowari, the Shield Crusher.
Keen Edge: Kiba is unaffected by any effect that ignores an object's hardness.
Kissed by Lightning: Kiba is a natural conduit for Lightning chakra, any character with
Lightning release as Chakra nature deals an additional 2d6 damage with Kiba.
Lightning Rods: While holding Kiba in each hand, the wielder can perform Lightning Release
techniques without performing hand signs. Instead substituting movements with the swords.
Legendary Sharpness: Kiba can threaten a critical hit on a creature that would not normally
be subject to critical hits, such as a construct, elemental or undead creature. The critical hit
must still be confirmed normally.
Electromagnetic Wielder: The wielder of Kiba, if they have the Lightning Release, can allow
the blades to float next to him for a movement to allow them to weave hand seals. The
wielder is still considered wielding Kiba.
Special: There are two Kiba sword, and each have the exact same statistics as those
presented here. Neither Kiba swords work if the other isn’t wielded as well.
Vampiric Blade(At-Will, swift action): Half the damage you deal with the Cleaving blade,
heals the blade of any damage it’s taken.
Deadly Sneak attack: When the wearer deals sneak attack damage, the sneak attack
damage is dealt in d8 instead of d6.
Body Stitcher(At-Will, swift action): Use when making a successful attack to attempt to Stitch
the creature. Make a grapple attempt against the target that does not provoke an attack of
opportunity, and the stitched target is grappled on a successful attempt.
The wielder can attempt to deal weapon damage with a successful grapple check any
round after establishing a grapple, but Nuibari cannot be used to attack when a creature is
stitched. Removing the thread is an attack action, and the thread is removed if the target
breaks out of the grapple.
Basting Stitches(1/round, Standard action): Throw Nuibari in a 30-ft. long line, and make a
single attack roll against each creatures in the line. Any creature struck takes weapon
damage, but any extra damage is only applied to the first creature. Nuibari is recovered at
the end of this maneuver, and it cannot be used with the weapon's body stitching ability.
Monstrous Blade: Samehada has a will of its own, and may transform into its Monster Blade
form and slither away from the user at will. This transformation is a free action and can
be done at any time. When killed, Samehada reverts to its sword-form for 1 full week. Using
this ability purges any stored chakra the blade may have had.
Gorge on Chakra(Constant): On a critical hit you deal 2d6 points of Chakra damage, as
Samehada drinks up your enemies Chakra.
Disruptive Hunger (At-Will, free action): When someone is using a technique in your
threatened area or when you disrupt someone performing a technique with a time of 1 round
or longer you can drain the chakra used in the technique. This attack is a touch attack. The
attack deals no weapon damage, but deals 3d6 chakra damage and forces a Concentration
check to avoid being interrupted and losing the chakra from the technique (DC
25+technique's rank).
Leeching Blade(At-Will, free action): Use when attacking someone who has temporary
chakra or in a bijuu transformation, or when striking an object imbued with temporary chakra
you can Drain the chakra. The attack deals no damage, but it does 2d6 damage in chakra
damage that cannot exceed the target's total temporary chakra. This attack is a touch
Attack.
If the target object was empowered with chakra, the effect is cancelled if it takes chakra
damage equal to or greater than the cost of the effect.
Power Reserve: Absorbs and stores half the chakra drained from enemies. The chakra is
lost after a 24 hour period.
Gift from a Sharks mouth (At-Will, full-round action): Draw the chakra contained in
samehada and recover an amount of chakra or hit points equal to the amount you draw from
Samehada, any excess Chakra becomes Temporary chakra for up to one hour, with a
maximum of twice your level in temporary chakra.

Chakra Leech (Ex): Each time Samehada hits with a melee attack, it leeches chakra
equal to half the damage it deals. For each point of chakra it leeches, it heals 2 points of
damage and gains 1 point of temporary chakra for 5 minutes. When a technique fails to
pass samehada's chakra resistance, it absorbs part of it and gains heals 4 points of damage
and gains 1 temporary chakra every 2 technique rank (round down).

A paper bomb must be charged before use, this takes a Chakra control roll DC 7 + the
number of dice of damage. The paper bomb remains charged for 1 minute per character
level. At the end of a charge period, the paper bomb simply explodes. The character that
charged the paper bomb can spend a free action to detonate the paper bomb as long as
he’s within a 100ft range of it.
A paper bomb can also be used as a proximity explosive, exploding the moment someone
enters within a 5ft burst of it. Medium or above can extend this area to the maximum of their
burst.
Paper bombs can be chained, so long as they’re within 10ft of each other. Additional bombs

Pill Cost
Ration Pill: These pills were created to allow ninjas to perform at a constant level and
to lower the encumbrance rate for long lasting missions. Consuming a Ration Pill allows
the character to shrug off the effects of Starvation and Thirst for 6 days, or 144 hours.
After its effects wear off, however, the character will suffer 1d4 point of temporary
Constitution damage that will either heal normally, or after he eats three full meal and
rests a full day.
A character can only consume one Ration Pill per two weeks period.
Soldier Pill: The character gains 2d4+1 points of temporary Chakra for 72 hours. For 24
hours afterwards or until the chakra is expended (whichever is longer), the character will
be able to ignore starvation and thirst and gain a +4 bonus to saves against sleep effects.
If the character becomes fatigued, the penalties still apply normally but the character can
still run or charge. If the character becomes exhausted, the penalties are reduced to -4 and
the character is still able to run and charge.
The character will only be able to run at x3 his speed (see Movement in the Gamemastering
chapter for details). The character will gain a +4 bonus to Constitution checks made to
continue running.
Once the effect fades, the character will be nauseated for 2d6+2 hours (Fortitude save DC
15 reduces this to the minimum time of 4 hours). The character will be unable to sleep, rest
or undergo any natural means of restoring ability damage or hit points, or regaining spent
chakra, power points or spells for 36 hours from the time he consumes the soldier pill.
The effects of the soldier pill do not stack, and do not refresh the effects. If the character
is knocked unconscious for 1 or more hours, the effect immediately fades, and the
character becomes nauseated (see above).
Sense Tablet: These small blue pills are often used during prolonged guard duty and
allow one to remain conscious longer while exponentially increasing one's senses over
time. For 1d4+1 hours, the character gains a +1 bonus to perception and
Survival checks and a +4 bonus to saving throws made to resist sleep effects. The bonus
to Perception and Survival checks increases by +1 every hour after the first
spent under the effects of the drug.
If a character is able to sense chakra, the radius of his ability will be increased by one-half
time while the tablet's effect last. Once the effects fade, the character will suffer 1d2
points of temporary Wisdom damage as well will be nauseated for 1 hour (Fortitude
save DC 18 negates nauseated condition).
The nausea can be countered by ingesting another tablet. Doing so increases the effect of
the nausea by 2 hours for every consecutive tablet ingested, and the wisdom damage dealt
by 1. Every hour spent under the drug keeps increasing the bonus to checks by +1, up to
+10. The penalty, however, does not cap out. If the Wisdom damage taken when the
effect fades is higher than the character's normal Wisdom score, it must make a save
against massive damage to avoid overdosing and suffering normal effects of massive
Damage.
Akimichi Food Pill: These pills are created only by the Akimichi clan of Konoha, and
Anyone found selling or crafting those pills quickly finds themselves the target of Akimichi
rage with extreme prejudice.
A character without the Caloric control feat will die one round after ingesting an akimichi food
pill of any type, unless it succeeds a Fortitude save (DC 30).
Green: The green food pill grants the character a +2 bonus attack and weapon damage
rolls, a +4 bonus to opposed disarm, trip, grapple, bullrush or overrun checks and Athletic
checks, as well as +10 temporary chakra for 1 minute. After 1 minute, the character
becomes stunned from the pain for 1 round, and suffers 3d6 points of damage from the pain
(Fortitude DC 18 half) as well as 1d4 points of temporary Constitution damage.
Yellow: The yellow food pill increases the bonus attack and weapon damage rolls to +3,
the bonus to opposed disarm, trip, grapple, bullrush, overrun, Climb, Jump and Swim
Athletics checks to +6, and +20 temporary chakra for 5 rounds.
After 5 rounds, the character becomes stunned from the pain for 1 round and suffers 5d6
points of damage (Fortitude DC 20 half) as well as 3d6 points of chakra coils damage.
The yellow food pill can only be taken after the green food pill, while it is still in effect—
by itself, it is useless (and harmless). The duration of any previously ingested akimichi
food pill is refreshed and increased by 5 rounds.
Red: The red food pill grants the character +50 temporary chakra for 3 rounds.
Additionally, the character can not die or fall unconscious, regardless of how many hit
points it loses for as long as the effect lasts—standard effects of losing an excessive
amount of hit points (for example, death) resume after the effect fades.
After 3 rounds, the character becomes stunned by the pain for 1 round and will start
gaining 1 negative level per round for 2d6 rounds afterwards, up to half of which will
become permanent after 24 hours unless the character succeeds a Fortitude save (DC 25).
The red food pill can only be taken after the yellow food pill, while it is still in effect—by
itself, it is useless (and harmless). A manifestation of the character's chakra (such as a
blaze of chakra surrounding him, or translucent wings) will be present for the duration of
the effect.
Poison
Chakra
Every living being possesses some measure of chakra, no matter how small. It
represents the life energy of a being, the fuel of the soul. Chakra is essentially
divided in two parts: Chakra Pool, and Chakra Skills.
Chakra Skills
The "skill" aspect of chakra is divided in four parts: Chakra Control, Genjutsu,
Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, one for each type of technique shinobi are known to perform.
Chakra Control serves a character the most in that it represents his ability to mold
and control the flow of chakra in his body. A character with no ranks in this skill
cannot tap into his chakra reserve to gain extra energy. Chakra Control techniques
tend not to be offensive or defensive, but rather perform sometimes gravity-defying
feats such as walking up walls or on water.
Genjutsu serves a character the most in that it alters the perception of reality in a
creature, causing illusions, and sometimes deadly hallucinations. Genjutsu also
serves to identify illusions cast by another to avoid being caught in them, or to gain
bonuses in resisting them.
Ninjutsu serves a character the most in that it allows him to blow plumes of flames,
heal wounds or simply vanish without a trace. It is the most basic shinobi skill and
benefits the most from strong chakra control.
Taijutsu serves a character the most in that it focuses the most on the character's
physical strengths rather than how many techniques it possesses, or how good his
chakra control is. Although at its root, Taijutsu represents hand-to-hand combat, all
forms of physical and non-mystical combat arts are represented by this skill.
Chakra Pool
The Chakra Pool of a character essentially represents much energy it can expend on
techniques or supernatural abilities before running out, and is represented by a set
number that grows as the character advances in level, gains new abilities or ability
score increase. A character has a reserve of chakra to supplement his chakra pool
called simply the Chakra Reserve.
The Chakra Control skill is crucial for any character who wishes to tap into that
reserve and make the most of his abilities.
Chakra Pool: A heroic character's chakra pool is 2 chakra per level, doubled at first
level. A character whose Constitution score is high enough gains a certain amount of
bonus chakra depending on his Constitution score. An ordinary character does not
gain this bonus chakra.
Your Constitution score grants you bonus chakra equal to your Con modifier × your
character level or hit dice. A Constitution modifier of 0 or less results in no bonus
chakra.

Chakra Reserve: A heroic character gains 2 chakra reserve every level. That chakra
reserve replenishes normally while he rests (see Chakra Recovery below).
Ordinaries only gain 1 chakra reserve that does not increase with levels.
A character can move Chakra from their Reserve, into their pool, by spending a
move action in concentration. A character can choose to move as much chakra from
his Reserve to his pool as he wants, but must keep the risk of Chakra Depletion in
mind.
Chakra Signature: Every creature with a chakra pool has its own chakra signature.
It is embedded in its genetic code and is proper to its owner; every chakra signature
is unique, no matter how slight the variation. Chakra Signatures can be modified with
abilities or technique, though those are few and far in-between.
Abilities that disguise one's appearance, such as Henge no Jutsu, do not change a
creature's chakra signature unless explicitly specified. After death, a creature's
chakra and chakra signature fades and quickly disappears.
Though some things, such as ageing or a dramatic growth in ability, may slightly
alter a Chakra Signature, it typically remains recognizable to those familiar with it. A
creature who can Sense Chakra remembers Chakra Signatures like a dog would
scents, or humans would sights. Generally, one can identify whether or not the
signature is human, animal or simply alien.
Chakra Recovery
Once a character experiences a loss of chakra, it recovers when resting in the same
manner as it would hit points. A character's chakra pool is recovered fully after an
evening of rest (approximately 8 hours). A character recovers his chakra reserve at a
rate equal to his character level every evening of rest. Bed rest does not affect the
rate at which a character recovers his chakra reserve. A character whose chakra
reserve is 0 suffers from chakra depletion (see below).
A character can take a short rest (1 hour), once per day, to regain up to 2/5th of your
entire chakra Pool.
No Chakra: When a character's chakra pool reaches 0, he begins draining his
reserve instead. Draining your reserves leads to a number of unfortunate side-effects
as outlined below.
Low Reserve: A character whose chakra reserve is reduced below 50% is fatigued
until his chakra reserve is over that threshold again. If the character's reserves were
depleted during an encounter, the fatigue does not take until the encounter ends. If
the chakra reserve falls below one-quarter (25%), even during an encounter, the
character is immediately fatigued.
If your reserve goes to 0 you immediately go unconscious and you must immediately
roll a fortitude save DC 10 + your level. On a failure your character’s HP goes to 0
and you begin dying. In addition to this, you gain Chakra Depletion.
Ingesting a soldier pill will allow the character to negate fatigue from low reserves.
Chakra Depletion
When a character's chakra reserve is 0, it suffers from chakra depletion until it
recovers fully. While in chakra depletion, the character is exhausted until his chakra
reserve recovers to the 50% threshold, where it is fatigued until it recovers fully.
In addition, the character only recovers one-quarter of his chakra pool every night
during chakra depletion. Complete bed rest doubles that amount.
A character suffering from chakra depletion does not regain chakra when taking a
short rest. Chakra reserve recovery coming from a source other than normal rest
does not alleviate chakra depletion.
Chakra Damage
When a character takes chakra damage, he risks suffering chakra depletion (see
above). There are other ways in which chakra pool can go up or down, as described
below
Chakra Coils Damage: This type of damage is very rare and difficult to cure.
Chakra Coil Damage lowers the character's current and total chakra pool and chakra
reserves. Temporary chakra coil damage heals at the rate of 1 point per week of
complete bed rest, unless aided by a medical ninjutsu technique. Permanent chakra
coil damage does not heal naturally and requires the aid of specific techniques or
methods.
Temporary Chakra and Bonus Chakra: Temporary increase of the relevant ability
score does not increase the character's chakra pool, unless explicitly stated in the
ability.
Temporary chakra does not increase the chakra pool but instead serves as a buffer
for it. It is generally spent first. If a temporary effect that directly increases the
character's chakra pool fades, the character's chakra pool is not reduced below 1
when it does. The character cannot have more than his maximum chakra pool in
temporary chakra at any one time.
Chakra Score
In the Shinobi world, a given character’s strength is often measured by his Chakra. As such,
a Character’s potential is often measured by his Chakra. This is represented in game, by the
Chakra Score. A Character’s Chakra Score is equal to his level + 1 for every 15 points of
Chakra from his combined Chakra Pool and Chakra Reserve. If you have additional pools of
Chakra, like Nature Chakra or Gift of the Sages Chakra, you gain +1 Score for every 10
points of Chakra in these pools.
For instance, a level 8 character with a Pool of 46 and a Reserve of 26 - For a total of 72
points - has a Chakra score of 11, thus their Chakra Strength is Moderate
Chakra Chakra Detection Signature Signature Stay
Score Strength modifier modifier
Certain classes, feats and Bloodlines give a character access to the ability to either
Sense or Suppress chakra.
Sense chakra: When you have the ability to sense chakra, it means you’re capable
of locating specific chakra signatures up to a range. Identifying their position and
relative strength. Unless otherwise noted, the range of detection is 100 yards. It
takes a Full-round action to build up the concentration to sense Chakra, afterwards
the ability can be maintained with a move-action each round. Enemies that try to
remain hidden must be actively trying to do so, this enters you into a contest of
Chakra Control vs Chakra control. The winner takes all, ergo if the sensor wins he
detects the one trying to hide. A character adds his Detection modifier to his attempt
to hide.
Tracking Through Chakra: When you’re capable of sensing Chakra, you can
effectively trace a specific signature over a distance. It functions much like Sensing
Chakra, however is much harder. The DC to track a Chakra Signature is 10 + the
target's Character level, you add your Signature modifier to the roll. This otherwise
functions like Tracking. A signature stays relevant for the amount of time indicated
under Signature Stay.
Identify Signature: If a character has used their Chakra in a specific location, it leaks
and leaves a mark. You can perform a Sense chakra roll much like you were tracking
a target, with the same modifier. If you succeed, you can identify the specific
signature.
Suppress Chakra (Su): A character with the ability to suppress chakra can spend one
minute in deep concentration to suppress his chakra, this reduces his Chakra strength by
one step, plus an additional step per minute he spends in concentration, this can reduce his
Chakra strength below Faint. Doing this successfully requires a Chakra Control roll of a DC
of 10 + your Chakra score, the DC increases by 5 for every additional level you wish to go
down. Performing a technique, or indeed spending any sort of chakra without succeeding on
the Chakra Control roll to hide it brings your Chakra strength back to full. Having obvious
Chakra charged techniques active nullifies Suppress Chakra.
See Chakra (Su): The character is able to see chakra being used, chakra auras and
lingering chakra and allows him to attempt to identify the effect of the lingering chakra,
though usually not precisely unless he is particularly familiar with the technique. The
character can use the Perception skill instead of making a Genjutsu check or a Wisdom
check to detect Genjutsu or see chakra activity (see Sense Chakra for detail). In addition, he
can focus his sight to examine a creature or object to detect traces of lingering chakra from it
with a Perception check. Those traces are the result of an active effect that was placed on
the target from a technique or ability that required the use of chakra. Success allows the
character to make a second check to identify the effect to get a rough idea of the source, but
requires him to have a clear line of sight to the target. The check difficulty is based on the
amount of chakra used to create the effect and requires the target to be within 30 feet.
Source Strength Perception check DC, the Chakra referenced is the amount spent.
Moderate (6 to 15 chakra) 15
See Through Chakra (Su): This ability functions like See Chakra, but the character gains a
+4 circumstance bonus to Perception checks to detect lingering chakra, genjutsu and see
chakra activity, and a +2 resistance bonus to Will saves to disbelieve Genjutsu techniques.
When performing a technique after suffering Chakra Point damage, the character must
check to see if the technique's rank is equal to or lower than the technique rank relevant to
the amount of Chakra Point damage taken (see table below). If so, he must make a Chakra
Control check to see if he can perform the technique; on a failed check, the character
automatically fails his perform check.
If the character succeeds or the technique's rank is higher than the rank impeded by the
Chakra Point damage, he performs the technique normally.

Chakra Point Damage: This entry relates to the amount of Chakra Point damage taken by
the character. The penalties are not cumulative.
Chakra Control DC: The difficulty of the chakra control check the character must succeed to
perform a technique of a rank impeded by Chakra Point damage (see below).
Technique Rank: The rank of techniques impeded by Chakra Point damage, for which the
character must succeed a Chakra Control check in addition to a perform check. If the
performed technique's rank is equal to or lower than this entry, it is impeded.
At 128 or more Chakra Point damage: A character with 128 or more Chakra Point damage is
fatigued until Chakra Point damage taken is reduced to 127 or lower.
Healing Chakra Point: Recovering from Chakra Point damage outside of techniques is done
while the character rests.
The character heals his character level or hit dice in Chakra Point damage every evening of
rest.
Chakra Point damage is healed twice as fast during bed rest. Complete bed rest triples the
amount of Chakra Point damage healed.
Chakra Natures
Each character in Shinobi Legends possesses a chakra nature whether they know it, or not.
This is basically an affinity of the chakra which connects with one of the 5 elements; Earth,
Fire, Lightning, Water and Wind. A character gains a bonus when using techniques of his
own Chakra Nature, as well as suffering a penalty against techniques to which his nature is
weak.
As you create your character you have to choose their primary affinity, the primary affinity is
their base Nature transformation with which they’re innately in tune and have an easier time
learning, resisting, and which is innately more powerful. Then as the character gains levels
they can choose secondary elemental affinities, they gain no bonuses on learn checks or
saves with these affinities.
1st +1 +2 +1 Primary
4th +1 +3 +1
8th +1 +4 +2
11th +2 +5 +2 Secondary
12th +2 +6 +3
16th +2 +7 +4
20th +3 +8 +5 Secondary
DC Bonus: This is a flat bonus to the Difficulty Class of techniques of the associated affinity.
Learn Bonus: This is the bonus to Learn checks a character receives with techniques of the
associated affinity.
Save Bonus: This is the Saving Throw bonus the character receives against techniques of
the associated affinity.
Strength/Weakness
Each Chakra Nature affinity is strong against one nature and weak against another, this only
applies to your primary affinity. The following table shows which natures you can choose
from, and what they’re weak against. A Character takes a -2 to their Saving throws against
techniques their Affinity Nature is weak against.
Some Kekkei Genkai replace your primary and even secondary affinities, these are special
cases. In such a case, the character chooses an affinity from among the Chakra Natures
that make up the Kekkei Genkai. This Nature becomes his Affinity.
Types of Chakra
Most chakra contained within an individual is laced with the element of his affinity;
Earth, Fire, Lightning, Water or Wind. These types of chakra will have minute effects
outside of the usual use for Jutsu and the like. However, a few rare types of Chakra
exist in the world that are unique to some individuals.
Nature chakra: Nature chakra is the special kind of chakra that’s used by sages to
power their special jutsu, however there’s a very real threat coupled with the use of
unregulated abuse of nature chakra. Due to the enormous amount of natural energy,
the user of nature chakra runs a very real risk of turning to stone should he let his
nature chakra get out of hand. 1 point of nature chakra counts as 3 points of ordinary
chakra when used to power ordinary techniques, non-sage techniques. Nature
chakra is powerful but unstable, and most characters cannot contain it for long. This
means that ordinary characters lose 1/3rd of their nature chakra every hour they’re
not in the Sage’s trance or 5, whichever is higher. A character cannot store more
nature chakra than 1/3rd of his entire chakra pool rounded down. However as long as
the character retains this nature chakra his charisma score is lowered by 1 point per
2 point of nature chakra, this charisma damage cannot be healed normally and will
only be healed once the character’s Nature chakra pool is entirely empty. Should the
user's charisma score ever reach 0 through the over use of nature chakra, the user
is instantly transformed to stone and dies. Each point of charisma damage makes
the character resemble his bonded tribe more and more, and if turned to stone he’ll
resemble a giant stone copy of his bonded tribe.
Understanding and Learning Techniques
First there’s a Techniques Rank, Rank ranges from E-Class all the way up to S-Class. Rank
exposes how complex a technique is and determines the difficulty of learning it and the
number of successes required to do so.
Second, is Level. Each technique has a level, this level denotes the amount of power that’s
needed for a given character to learn a technique. For instance the Summoning Technique
has a level of 6, and is a Ninjutsu technique, thus it requires a skill rank of 6 in Ninjutsu to
learn and perform. Level additionally provides a measure of how long it takes between each
learning attempt, as such when you attempt to learn a level 3 technique you can roll once
every 3 training Modules you’ve undertaken. (For Training Modules, see below.)
Below you will see how Rank affected the difficulty and complexity of a technique.
E-Class 2 1 Successes
D-Class 4 2 Successes
C-Class 6 3 Successes
B-Class 8 4 Successes
A-Class 10 5 Successes
S-Class 12 6 Successes
Complexity: This is the number you add to the Learn DC of a technique, due to the
complexity of the rank.
Tests Completed: This is the number of successes required before a technique is learned
and ready for use.
E-Class:These Techniques are the lowest, most academy students should be able to
master these. These are Below Genin level. Even some civilians know these basic skills.
D-Class: These Techniques are Genin level, slightly above the academy level. But should
be easily mastered by Genins and above.
C-Class: This level of technique is a cinch above Genin, and right in the ballpark of Chunin.
These techniques are often considered as measuring tools for advancement from Genin to
Chunin.
B-Class: These are mostly considered Jounin level techniques and often too complicated for
Chunin. These Techniques are often powerful enough to change the tides of battle, and
exercise lethal force.
A-Class: This level is considered Advanced Jounin Techniques, mastered only by a few.
These techniques are often considered too advanced for most ninja to master.
S-Class: Beyond the capabilities of most Jounin level Ninja, these techniques are rarely
seen, but often heard about. These techniques are only ever mastered by Highly skilled
Shinobi, and are most often seen with Higher-ups and Kage level Shinobi.
Learning a Technique
To learn a technique, a shinobi must choose to devote the time to its study and complete a
series of challenges to internalize it. This is represented by the techniques Learning DC,
Training Modules and Test successes required to learn (Read above.) When you attempt to
learn a technique, you must succeed at a number of Tests (Skill check vs LDC) equal to the
Rank of the Technique(See above). The amount of time that passes between each Test is
determined by the training Modules you need to complete. The number of Training Modules
needed is equal to the techniques level, as such a level 3 technique requires you to
complete 3 training Modules before attempting a Test.
Below is an explanation of each variable one needs to keep in mind, when learning a
technique.
Learn Difficulty: This is a shortened LDC. This is the difficulty number you need to test
against, when you attempt to learn a technique. This is calculated as follows: 10 + Level of
the technique + Complexity provided by rank. (See above)
Tests Completed: This is the number of successes you need to achieve to learn a
technique. This is determined by the Techniques Rank. (See above) Everytime you roll a
Test and it fails, the next Test gains a +2 bonus. This bonus stacks up to a total of +6. This
bonus vanishes after one successful roll.
Training Modules: Often just referred to as Modules. A Training Module is a period of time,
4 hours, which you devote to training. A day can hold at most 2 Modules, as such you can
spend a total of 8 hours every day devoted to training. When attempting to learn a technique,
its Level determines the amount of Training Modules that must pass between each
attempted Test.
Medium: Initiating the study of a technique, the Shinobi must first find a medium of study.
This could be a teacher, learning from a Manual (Book, scroll or similar instruction manual),
or having simply witnessed it in action with a chance to thoroughly study it. Each medium
makes the learning of a technique easier or harder depending on the medium. Finally,
there’s the Medium of Creation. Creating your own Techniques takes a while and follows
slightly different rules.
Teacher: A teacher is the medium most often used to learn a technique, when using a
teacher he must devote half the number of Training Modules the Student devotes in order to
teach a given technique. However, for each Step of Mastery a teacher has in a given
technique he can reduce the number of Modules the student needs to pass between each
test, equal to half the teacher's Mastery rounded up. As such, a Teacher wanting to teach
his Student the Chidori and has Mastery Step 3 in Chidori, will reduce his students number
of Modules between Tests by 2. Down from 5 Modules per Test, to 3 Modules per test.
Manual: This medium covers all forms of written instruction on how to learn a technique.
Learning a technique this way increases the number of Modules that need to pass between
each Test. This increase is based on the Manuals rating. A manual can be rated from +1 to
+5. The lower the number, the better the manual.
Witnessed: This medium is often discarded by most Shinobi, as it involves a whole lot of
guesswork and therefore increases the number of Modules a student needs to pass between
tests quite significantly. Shinobi with specific abilities like the Sharingan may diminish or
avoid this penalty altogether. When training a Witnessed technique, the amount of Training
Modules required between each Test is doubled. Additionally, the Shinobi must first have
seen the technique in action and successfully identified it. A Technique that has been
resisted or countered, does not count as having been witnessed.
Creation: Creating a technique of your own is rarely done by most Shinobi, but whenever it is
used it is a perfect way to build up a secret repertoire of power. To create a technique, work
with your Storyteller to figure the mechanics, then roll a training roll. However, you require
five times the number of Modules between each Test.
Creation of Derived Technique: This refers to techniques created by using an old technique,
in a new way. For instance, you may have the Rasengan technique and wish to create
something like Naruto’s Rasengan Barrage. This isn’t exactly a new technique from the
grounds up, but rather using two techniques in conjunction with one another, or using a
technique in a way it wasn’t intended. Such derived techniques can never break the mold of
an original technique, so if a technique prohibits flying while it’s active then you cannot
create a derived variant, unless you somehow managed to assuage that limitation. A
Derived technique is created as if you had a teacher, but without any mastery. Additionally,
you must have Mastery step 1 to create a derived technique from a given technique.
Mastery
All Techniques have five Steps of Mastery a given character can strive to achieve, these
Mastery Steps each come with their own choice of perks but some techniques also carry
unique upgrades that follow along passively as you gain increased mastery.
Mastery is, in essence, a character's personal proficiency with a technique. A way for him to
specialize and to pull everything he can from a given technique. Whenever a character
increases his Mastery by one Step, he can choose a perk below to indicate his increased
proficiency, this perk is in addition to anything provided by the technique itself.
To increase a Mastery Step a Shinobi must complete a full training regiment; this works
exactly like when the Shinobi first learned the technique, except for the LDC increasing by
+1 and the time between Tests increases by 1 Module equal to the Mastery Step the Shinobi
seeks to achieve. For example, attaining Mastery Step 3 would require succeeding at the
Techniques original LDC +3 with 3 additional Modules between each Test. Lastly, a Shinobi
must have a skill rank equal to the level of the technique plus the level of mastery he seeks
to achieve, in the techniques corresponding skill.
A single Shinobi can only reach Mastery Step 5 in one technique, per 5 levels. To a
maximum of 4 completely mastered techniques at level 20.
Mastery Perks
Below are a list of Perks you can choose from, whenever you increase a Step in Mastery. If
a technique has its own Mastery benefits that increase Damage, Saving Throw, Range,
Area, Defenses, Precision, Decreased cost, Duration, or Hand Seals, you cannot also take
the corresponding perk. These perks are in addition to any Mastery bonuses provided by a
technique itself.
Damage: Every time you pick this perk, you increase the damage of a technique by 2 dice,
up to a maximum of triple the initial damage dice. If a technique has two different sources of
damage, such as a Chidori’s Piercing and Lightning damage, the Shinobi chooses which to
increase. If the damage of a technique is flat, you increase this flat damage by +2.
Saving Difficulty: You increase the Saving Throw DC of the technique by +1.
Range: If a Technique has a range of Short, Medium or Long you increase the final range by
20%. If the range is based on you moving, such as with the charge of Rasengan, you
increase the movement by +10ft. If a technique has a flat range, increase the range by +10ft.
Boosted Avoidance: Grant a +1 bonus on Avoidance Activation Rolls, using this technique.
Precision: For each Step of Mastery you gain a +1 to hit with the given technique.
Defense: If a technique gives an Armor Class bonus, Natural Armor bonus or Dodge bonus,
increase that bonus by +1. If a technique grants more than one of these bonuses, select one
to increase. This Perk cannot be taken more than thrice.
Decreased Cost: Decrease the cost of the technique by -1, or 4%, whichever is higher,
every time you purchase this Mastery Perk. A Technique can at most have it’s cost reduced
to half its original.
Duration: You increase the duration of the technique by 20% every time you purchase this
Mastery Perk, for a total of double duration.
Reduced Maintenance: You double the time between necessary Maintenance costs to
keep Maintained techniques active. This cannot be bought, if a technique itself already offers
an effect similar to this with Mastery Steps.
Hand Seal Compression: This perk can only be purchased if the technique requires Hand
Seals (H), if bought the Hand Seals is reduced to Half Seals (S).
Explaining Techniques
Resisting Techniques
Some techniques require an opponent to roll a save, be it Fortitude, Reflex or Will. The
difficulty class of said roll is always: 10 + Half the Technique’s level, rounded down, + the
relevant ability modifier. For Ninjutsu and Fuinjutsu it’s Intelligence, For Chakra control it’s
Wisdom, for Genjutsu it’s Charisma and for Taijutsu it’s Strength.
Components
Most Techniques have some component requirements that need to be fulfilled to cast it,
each Component is represented with a few letters under the “component” section of a
Technique.
Hand seals(H): Hand seals require at least 2 free hands to perform, and a recently blind
character has a 20% chance to fail. Those who've had time to practice their Technique while
blind, do not incur this penalty. GM’s discretion on when enough training has been made.
Technique requiring this component cannot be used while grappled, pinned or otherwise
helpless.
Half Seals(S): Half seals are hand seals that only require one free hand to perform the
Technique. Technique requiring this component cannot be used while grappled, pinned or
otherwise helpless.
Mobility (M): A character must be able to perform unrestricted movement. A Character that
is entangled, paralyzed, grappled, pinned or otherwise having their movement halted is
unable to perform this Technique. Each point of Armor check penalty incurs a 5% penalty. If
a Character is in difficult terrain, or otherwise unable to move at full speed he incurs a 10%
chance of failure.
Material focus (F): A character needs the required material to perform the technique. This
includes both expendable material and re-usable ones.
Technique Tags
Tags are descriptors of a Technique, that allows you to quickly identify what type of
Technique you're working with, what limitations, additional abilities it has or what
considerations you might need to make before learning and using that technique.
General Tags
These are the General Tags, they are not governed by technique type.
Chakra Cloak: A technique that is labelled as a Chakra cloak, is effectively that. A Choak of
Chakra that encapsulates the target in some way, shape or form. Chakra cloaks are physical
and visible manifestations of chakra. A Character can only have one Chakra cloak active at
a time.
Clone Technique: A Clone technique is a technique that lets the user spawn copies of
himself, usually from some sort of element, by infusing the given element with a large
quantity of his chakra.
While the replications are not capable of sentient thought, they share a bond of sorts that
allows the user to communicate orders to his clones; the bond is only one way, though, and
the clones cannot send orders, thoughts or images to the user. As such, the clones follow
the user's instructions to the letter. A clone is its own person and if caught in a genjutsu, only
the replica will be affected, and not the user.
The clones have 2 hit points per three levels of the user, saving throws equal to that of the
user -3, the same base attack bonus as the user -4, though it can only perform at most two
attacks per round. It shares the user's Armor class as well, with a -5 penalty, as well as all
feats, talents and special abilities the user may have. A Clone can, at times, use techniques
but a given clone can never use techniques of a level higher than the user’s current
corresponding Skill rank -4, but doing so requires the clone to borrow the user's chakra
directly. A Clone can take any number of actions, on the turn they’re created, equal to the
number of actions the creator has left.
A clone may not stray further than 1 mile from the user, and may be created in any location
that can hold it within 50 feet though it will always appear in a square adjacent to the user, or
the closest available. In addition, all drawbacks coming from a technique used by a
replication not only affects the clone, but also the user. A replica counts as the user if it uses
a technique to create clones, and thus they are controlled by the user and his own limit is
used.
The clone is relatively genuine and carries the same equipment as the user except chakra
dependent items such as exploding tags or sunburst tags. Any items carried by the clone
have no hardness and only half the original's hit points. Poison and mastercraft bonuses are
not carried over to the clone's equipment.
Once the clone reaches 0 hit points, strays too far from the user or the duration expires, it
disappears in a puff of smoke or crumbles into the material used to fashion it. When Sensing
Chakra, the clones count as though having half the user's Chakra Strength.
Unless otherwise noted, as with the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, a user can never
create more clones than one-third his Chakra Score, rounded down. This is his Clone limit.
Jinchuriki may pull upon the Chakra Score of their ghastly passengers, allowing them to add
the Chakra Score of their Tailed beast to their own, to calculate their Clone limit.
Certain feats and abilities may adjust this limit and most Clone Techniques have inherent
limits of their own.
Avoidance: Any technique with the Avoidance tag can be used to avoid any hostile action
taken against the user. Avoidance techniques can only be used to avoid attacks that a
character knows are coming, Moreover a character can only utilize one Avoidance technique
per encounter, +1 additional technique at levels 5, 10, 15 and ultimately 20. A character
cannot attempt to avoid assaults from enemies that are 5 levels higher than them. Certain
abilities and Technique increase the number of Avoidance techniques a character can use
per encounter. Constructs such as those made through the use of Clone techniques cannot
make use of Avoidance techniques.
Avoidance Bonus: Increase your Activation roll by the + indicated. As such, the Avoidance
bonus +2 grants them a +2 on the D20 + User level + Technique modifier.
Avoidance Defense: Certain techniques, stances, feats and class abilities grant something
called Avoidance Defense. This is always followed by a factor. Such as +1 or +2. Avoidance
Defense increases the DC your opponent must achieve to successfully avoid the technique.
Defensive Maneuver: Defensive Maneuvers are techniques that can, in some way, be used
as an immediate action to bolster the defenses of the user. These, unlike Avoidance, are
governed independently, and as such do not follow into an overarching use-limit like
Avoidance does. A character can only use a single Defensive Maneuver once per round.
Training: This is a technique that, once learned, grants the user a permanent boost to an
ability, skill or situation - or the ability to employ some sort of unique maneuver. Samples
could be the grapple training Technique.
Requires: This Tag denotes the fact that a technique has some sort of requirement that
needs to be met for the user to employ the Technique. This could be anything from a
material, knowledge of a technique or for another technique to be currently active.
Sage Art: Techniques with this tag, require that the user is in Sage mode to use it and may
cost additional Nature Chakra to use.
Scientific: A technique with the Scientific tag, requires that a user has the necessary
Scientific Ninja tool to utilise it. It will be presented like this.
Kinjutsu: Kinjutsu are also known as forbidden techniques. A technique labelled with the
Kinjutsu tag takes a -6 learning penalty, however this penalty evaporates for all techniques in
a line that is learned once the first technique of a line has been learned. Kinjutsu requires
specific permission to be learned.
Derived: This technique is derived from another, which means you’re required to know the
technique from which it is derived first, at a mastery step one.
Ninjutsu
While most Techniques are classified as Ninjutsu, some require knowledge or skills outside
the norm of generally good Ninjutsu Practice. The tags below denote this Shinobi skill one
needs to master, as well as certain requirements one needs to meet to be able to learn and
employ a technique without a given handicap.
Nintaijutsu: These techniques are a mixture of Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, it requires an equal
rank in both for the user to be able to learn this technique.
Chakra Control: A ninjutsu with the Chakra Control tag, notes that the user needsChakra
Control on a rank equal to the level of the technique to activate the given Technique. If the
technique calls for a skill check, you must use Chakra Control instead.
Materia: Some Techniques might have the Materia tag, this tag usually only combines with
Nature Transformation Technique. A Technique with the Materia tag can be cast at half the
cost if the corresponding element that the technique requires is at hand. For example the
user could use Earth Release: Earth-Style wall without nearby earth, for 8 Chakra. But if
Earth is available in the terrain, he needs only to pay half the cost. The Storyteller is always
the final arbiter of whether material is available.
Medical: Medical techniques are a subset of Chakra control techniques and therefore
function as Chakra control techniques do above. With the added specific addition that a
single target cannot benefit from the effects of more than one Medical technique, at a time. A
User is required to have a Medicine skill equal to the level of the Medical Ninjutsu.
Fuinjutsu: A Ninjutsu tagged with the Fuinjutsu tag is called a Sealing Technique, anyone
without the Sealweaver feat takes a -8 penalty on learning Fuinjutsu and can only perform
Fuinjutsu of their own rank in the skill -2. Instead, whenever a technique calls for a roll, you
do not roll Ninjutsu, you must roll the Fuinjutsu skill instead. Moreover they require both
Ninjutsu and Fuinjutsu at a rank equal to the level of the Technique.
Genjutsu
Most Genjutsu are associated with one of the following tags, noting what sort of manipulation
one employs when using a technique to bewitch the mind.
Aural: A Genjutsu with the Aural Tag, is based on hearing. Meaning that a target must simply
hear whatever sound or melody the user is producing, to be subject to the effect of the Aural
Genjutsu. All Aural Genjutsu require that the user has Perform (Singing) or Perform (any
instrument) equal to the rank of the technique.
Mind-affecting: Techniques with this tag, notes that this Technique directly affects the mind
off a target. Certain Shinobi and Creatures might be immune to mind-affecting effects.
Fear: This tag explains that this technique induces some sort of fear effect in a target.
Certain Shinobi and Creatures might be immune to Fear effects.
Compulsion: The Compulsion tag notes that a technique with it directly forces the body of
another to react in a certain fashion. Certain Shinobi and Creatures might be immune to
Compulsion effects.
Phantasm: Phantasm tagged techniques conjure illusory images that confuse and impede
the target. Certain Shinobi and Creatures might be immune to Phantasm effects.
Gaze: A Gaze Genjutsu is a technique employed through the user's eyes alone, requiring
direct eye contact. As such a target may avert their gaze in an attempt to prevent being
affected by a Gaze technique. Averting your gaze is a choice one must make at the
beginning of one's turn. Averting your gaze penalizes you with all enemies having 50% miss
chance from your attacks, however there’s a 50% per Gaze attack employed against you
that you manage to avoid entirely, unless otherwise noted in the abilities description.
Taijutsu
Taijutsu is often viewed as a basic discipline beneath most Shinobi, however it cannot be
denied that masters of Taijutsu can be truly frightening individuals, with the capacity to push
their physical bodies to perform truly outrageous feats of destruction
Strike: Strikes are somewhat unique where Taijutsu techniques are concerned, as they
actually require an expenditure of Chakra when performed. Strikes are often a single,
powerful punch or kick or a series of attacks.
Training: These “techniques” are unique in the sense that they require no roll to employ and
usually no expenditure of chakra. Once learned, a Training technique allows the user to
employ some sort of specific move or enjoy a specific benefit. A sample would be the Eight
Inner Gates, learning one simply allows the user to activate it with no expenditure of the
chakra.
Stance: A stance is a technique very similar to training techniques, as once a stance is
learned a user can usually enter it and employ the given benefits without the expenditure of
Chakra. A character can only employ the benefit of one stance technique at a time. Entering
a stance is a move-equivalent action, whereas leaving one is a quick action.
Freehand: This technique can only be employed as an unarmed strike and with a free hand.
Bukijutsu: These are Taijutsu techniques that require the user to employ some sort of
weapon or implement to fulfil them. It’s a catch-all term.
Kenjutsu: Kenjutsu techniques are all Bukijutsu techniques as well, however all Kenjutsu
techniques specifically requires swords in hand or at hand to be employed
Chakra nature tags are simply tags that explain which Chakra Nature is needed to call upon
a given technique and often the sort of damage it deals. A Chakra Nature Tag is usually
presented something like this.
Lightning release
This explains the technique uses the lightning release when employing this technique and
often that Lightning damage is employed somehow. Additionally, a technique featuring a
given Nature tag cannot be employed by a shinobi, unless they have access to that
particular Chakra nature themselves.
Range
Techniques can have varying degrees of range, varying from Short to Long.
Some techniques might have a greater, shorter, or a more specific range than this, if so then
it will be noted in the effect descriptor.
Identifying Techniques
To identify a Technique and what it does requires a check of the specified Shinobi skill at a
DC of 10 + the rank of the technique. Fuinjutsu and Space-time Technique increase the DC
by +8, unless a character has the ability to freely use such. Kinjutsu and Hijutsu add +10 DC.
Advanced chakra natures increase the DC by +4.
Genjutsu cannot be identified the same way, the DC to identify a Genjutsu is +8 unless you
possess the exact same one. However a general roll of 10 + the rank of the Technique + the
user's charisma modifier will let you identify that you are in a genjutsu.
Durations
Instant: Techniques like this have no duration. These techniques are often attacks or
similar. Sometimes it might create something, if so the instant duration means that the
structure remains, even without additional chakra investments.
Focus: Techniques with Focus duration require constant mental action to keep active, this
requires at least a swift action every turn but techniques may specify different actions
required to keep it going. A single turn without being able to act, causes the technique to
lapse.
